Majors Little League All Stars

Overview

The Majors Little League All Star team is a sanctioned Little League team. Teams play in the local District tournament, the winner of the District advances to the Provincial tournament, the winner of the Provincials advances to the Nationals and the winning team at Nationals plays as Team Canada at the Little League World Series in Williamsport. For MSLL this means playing in the District 5 tournament against teams from Lynn Valley, Highlands and West Van. The winner of the District 5 tournament advances to the Provincials where they will complete against the winners of the other BC Little League districts, with the possibility to advance to Nationals and Little League World Series.
