Fifty-six teams will vie to fill the eight spots for the 99th American Legion World Series.
The field is set for the eight regionals which will decide the lineup for the 99th American Legion World Series.
Regional play runs Aug. 5-9. The ALWS will take place Aug. 13-18 at Veterans Field at Keeter Stadium in Shelby, N.C. Click here for the hub for complete coverage of the regionals and the ALWS.
A total of 56 teams will compete in the regionals. Under the new national tournament format approved by the National Executive Committee, two sites will host two regionals each. Shrewsbury/Worcester, Mass., will host Regions 1 and 2, while Cherryville/Gastonia, N.C., will host Regions 3 and 4.
The four eight-team regionals are scheduled to begin play Aug. 5, while the four six-team regionals will begin play Aug. 6.
Under the regionals’ double-elimination format, the results of Game 5 in the six-team regionals will dictate the remainder of that regional’s schedule. If the Game 3 loser wins Game 5, they would face the Game 4 winner in Game 7; Game 8 would match up the losers of Games 5 and 6; and Game 9 would be a matchup between the winners of Games 6 and 7.
Here are the regional schedules, subject to change:
