Little League World Series (Southeast Region)
The Southeast Region is one of ten United States regions that currently send teams to the Little League World Series, the largest youth baseball competition in the world. The region's participation in the LLWS dates back to 1957, when it was known as the South Region. However, when the LLWS was expanded in 2001 from eight teams (four U.S. teams and four "International" teams from the rest of the world) to 16 teams (eight U.S. and eight International), the Southern Region was split into the Southeast and Southwest Regions.

- ^ Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, Little League International did not invite teams from outside the U.S. to the LLWS in 2021. Instead, the top two teams in each U.S. region qualified.
Format Edit
As with all other regions, the tournament offers a "modified double elimination" format. Teams compete in a double-elimination tournament format with the exception of the championship game, which is a one-game, "winner take all," game regardless of the number of previous tournament losses by either team.
Notes Edit
- ^a Peachtree City National Little League of Peachtree City, Georgia won the Georgia state tournament by defeating Columbus Northern. However, Peachtree City was stripped of their title by virtue of having twelve players on the team whose league age was 12 years old. Little League regulations state that the maximum number for a team is eight.[1]
