Gambling on the Little League World Series? Sports bettors have gone too far

Offshore sportsbook BetOnline Sports & Casino offers odds on Little League World Series games, claiming demand that doubled betting volume in 2025 versus 2024 and that wagers on a South Korea-Canada matchup exceed those on some MLB games. State-regulated sportsbooks and U.S. prediction markets such as Kalshi and Polymarket prohibit LLWS betting, though Polymarket briefly listed such bets in 2024. Little League reiterated its stance that exploiting children’s games for gambling is unacceptable.
