Curacao defeated Henderson, Nevada, 11-2, to win the 2026 Little League World Series championship on August 30 at Howard J. Lamade Stadium in Williamsport, Pennsylvania. It was Curacao's second LLWS title and its first since 2004, ending a 22-year drought for the Caribbean island's Little League program. Juriensly De Windt and Shardijon De Lanoi combined to drive in six runs for Curacao, with De Windt's bases-loaded double in the top of the fifth inning breaking the game open and putting it out of Nevada's reach. Curacao finished the tournament undefeated at 6-0, never trailing in the championship game. The win kept the U.S. team, representing Nevada's Mountain Region champion, from claiming the title, extending the international bracket's recent success in the tournament's finale. The Little League World Series pits a U.S. bracket champion against an international bracket champion each year, and international teams have won several of the past decade's championships. The community leaned toward expecting a U.S. win, with 54% predicting "yes," but that prediction proved wrong as Curacao's pitching and timely hitting proved decisive in a lopsided final.
