Honolulu Little League (formerly Kaimuki Little League) is believed to be one of the oldest existing Little Leagues in the State, playing its first season in 1954. Currently, Honolulu Little League is a member of District 6 along with the ‘Aiea and Halawa Little Leagues.
Last year, Honolulu Little League won the Little League World Series for the Majors Division (11-12 year olds) defeating Curacao 13-3 in Williamsport, Pennsylvania. Honolulu Little League also won the Little League World Series in 2018 defeating South Korea 3-0. They also finished third in the Little League World Series in 2021. Honolulu Little League won the Hawaii State Championship in 2014, as well as in 1997 (as Kaimuki Little League).
Little League’s “flagship” division is its “Majors” division played by 11 and 12 year olds. This is the division highlighted in the Little League World Series. Fifteen Little League teams from Hawaii have competed in the Little League World Series. Four Hawaii teams have won the Little League World Series—Ewa Beach Little League in 2005, Waipio Little League in 2008, and Honolulu Little League in 2018 and 2022.
Little League also competes nationally and internationally at the Seniors (15-16 year olds), Juniors (13-14 year olds) and Intermediate (11-13 year olds) divisions. Honolulu Little League’s Juniors teams won the Hawaii State Championship and Western Regional Championship and made it to the Junior League Baseball World Series in Taylor, Michigan in 2023 and 2022. The Minors division (9-10 year olds) only competes at the state level.
Little leagues have been organized in Hawaii since pre-statehood and are currently divided into five (5) districts: District 1 – Windward Oahu and Kauai; District 3 – Lanai, Maui, and Molokai; District 4 – Big Island; District 6 – South Oahu; District 7 – West Oahu.
In 2019, Honolulu Little League had its first softball teams. That year, Honolulu Little League’s Majors softball team won the Hawaii State Championship and the Western Regional Championship, and made it to the Little League Softball World Series in Portland, Oregon.
