No, betting on the Little League World Series is not legal or ethical. The Little League World Series is a youth baseball tournament for children aged 11 and 12, and it is strictly amateur in nature. Betting on amateur sports, especially those involving minors, is generally prohibited by law in many places around the world due to the potential for exploitation and abuse.
In the United States, the Professional and Amateur Sports Protection Act of 1992 (PASPA) prohibited sports betting in most states until it was struck down by the Supreme Court in 2018. Even with the reversal of PASPA, most states that have legalized sports betting have laws in place that ban betting on amateur sports, and this typically includes events like the Little League World Series.
Moreover, the Little League organization itself has strict rules against gambling, and any attempt to bet on the outcomes of its games would be considered a serious violation of those rules.
It’s important to adhere to legal and ethical standards, especially when it comes to the well-being of children participating in sports.
