In 2019, the UK Clubs registered in Little League elected their first District Administrator. The British Baseball Federation, solely provides operational support (e.g., website space, etc). The BBF has no authority over the UK Little League Tournament, waivers, boundaries, or rules.
A spokesperson for the British Baseball Federation, said,” We are delighted our clubs have chosen someone that they trust and support. Charles Truby being the newly elected District Administrator (DA), has our support to promote Little League and we will assist him where we can. You should expect a resurgence of Little League in the UK. Little League offers something for the entire family, offers great competition, is a pathway to international competition and it is great just fun!”
