Kit stated that the Softball Majors Regional dates will likely be very similar to 2025, but baseball will be kicked out a week.  No word on the other Softball tournaments, but it sounds like they may be a week out as well.

From what I just found on the LL website, published 2 days ago:  https://www.littleleague.org/news/official-dates-set-for-the-2026-little-league-world-series-tournaments/

It looks like all WS tournaments are pushed out approximately 1 week (or so), EXCEPT for Softball Majors Little League.  That is staying within the same timeframe as 2025.

Per Kit (at the webinar tonight) the main reason is that for the Softball World Series in North Carolina, the girls all stay at a nearby college dorm complex, and they have hard dates given when the college year starts.

Now San Bernardino liked this because it will give the field another week in between the switchover from Softball to Baseball.

Since I didn't receive any response to the email I sent listing projected state dates, I assume everyone loved it. Now the bad news - at the West Region webinar meeting with Kit this evening, she said the dates published by Little League might not be accurate. So if there are changes, we will have to adjust. I believe from what she said, baseball is probably good. It is a problem with softball - and possibly only majors.
