- Considering there are more than 6,000 Little Leagues through the United States, the odds of any one reaching the promised land in Williamsport are astronomical.

But as Fairfield American showed last year, it is not impossible for a team from Connecticut to get there. The boys from Fairfield became the 17th squad from the state to reach the Little League World Series.

The summer-long process begins anew on Saturday with the start of the District Two tournament. Ten teams, split into two pools, will compete for the right to advance to the state sectionals. Every team will be in action on Saturday as five games are scheduled.

All games in the District Two tournament will be played at Bridgeport's Blackham Field. Participating teams are Fairfield National and American, Trumbull National and American, Stratford, Westport, Easton, Monroe and North End and Park City from Bridgeport.

At the conclusion of pool play, the top two finishers in each division advance to a double elimination playoff.

The section one tournament, to be hosted by Orange of District Four, is set for July 20-27. The two sectional winners clash in a best-of-three series to determine the state champion.

The Connecticut state winner advances to the New England Regionals in Bristol from August 4-14.  The eight regional winners from around the country qualify for the Little World Series, to be played from Aug. 18-28 in Williamsport.

Also on the line in the coming days with be district titles in the baseball 10, and 11-year-old age brackets and softball championships in the 10- 11- and 12-year-old divisions.
