After nearly 900 submissions throughout the last two months, Little League® is pleased to announce the top three photos of the 2025 League Photo Contest. In addition to recognition in the World of Little League® Museum and on the scoreboard during the 2025 Little League Baseball® World Series, Presented by T-Mobile, the top three photos will also receive direct entry into the 2025 Professional Baseball Photographer’s Association Photo Contest, set to take place later this fall.
Launched on June 6, 2025, fans were encouraged to present the many ways they are celebrating their Little League program throughout their communities. From fun moments on and off the field to incredible moments of inclusion, teamwork, and integrity, the 2025 Photo Contest allowed communities to show off tremendous smiles, intensity on the field, and lifetime moments that make the Little League experience so special.
Below are the top three photos, which were selected with input from a group of select professional photographers and content creators who have covered Little League.
Greater Pittston Township (Pa.) LL
Full extension. Full heart. 10-year-old Kaysen Simmons laid it all on the line – literally – in Section 5 action at Ackerly Field in Glenburn, Pennsylvania. Filled with integrity, Kaysen laid it out for his team, with the state tournament on the line. This isn’t just about hustle – it’s about heart, grit, determination, and the ability to do whatever it takes to be there for his teammates.
Torrance (Calif.) LL
On March 4, seven-year-old Michael Juarez crushed his first home run over the fence. All four kids ran over and began to jump up and down and hug Juarez in excitement, emulating the Little League core values of community, teamwork, and most importantly, fun.
Apple Valley (Calif.) LL
Daniela offering a helping hand, putting eye black on Janelle as the “Diamond Divas” prepare for their softball game. Teamwork always makes the dream work!
