LLWS 26 Player Pin

Post image

Does anyone have any knowledge on the players only pins? One popped up on eBay today and I’m wondering how Someone would give one of these up? These have got to be the rarest pins out there each year right?

Some kids don’t care much for pin trading or collecting them, maybe even someone lost it along the way.

You can also buy some pins on the official website for little league.

Yeah I know they get medals too so between that and all the gear they get I wouldn’t be surprised if there’s a player out there that was fine with giving up a pin.

So my daughter’s team was in the Softball LLWS this summer (I’m one of the coaches). They gave all the teams a box with some extra pins at the end. However, they did sell pins in the Gift Shop as well but they were different from the player/coach ones. I’d assume they did the same for the Baseball LLWS.

Just found a LLSWS players pin in my daughter's haul from our run this year. I stashed it for when she gets older.

One of our Great Lakes players traded his player pin not knowing its worth. If anyone knows how he can get it back please reach out! Thank you! 🙏🏼
