OAKLAND PARK, Fla (Gambling911.com) - For the first time ever, prop bets are being offered for players competing in the Little League Baseball World Series (LLBWS).
Gambling911.com first learned that Betonline, which has been in business since 1999 and is now among the world's top global gambling websites, had intended to offer LLWS player prop bets.
We reached out to the Little League World Series for reaction and have not yet heard back.
Twitter/X is already abuzz with controversy surrounding little league betting, and these new markets from BetOnline Sports & Casino are sure to spark more debate.
In June, BetOnline offered betting odds on the Special Olympics three years after the company was lambasted for doing so.
"As a former Special Olympics medals presenter, I was under the full and idyllic impression that competitors competed for the sake of having fun while enhancing self-worth, not as the building block a seedy gambling operation uses to make money. This one is beyond sick."
So "sick" that when Gambling911.com reached out to Special Olympics organizers about this year's betting, they simply brushed it off.
They issued a statement to Gambling911.com.
"Neither Special Olympics nor the 2026 USA Games organizing committee are able to provide comment as neither has an affiliation with BetOnline.ag."
Come to find out, they were partnering with - drum roll please - FanDuel.
So much for all the faux outrage from a few years back. Not a peep from those detractors this year.
And, so far at least, not a peep from the Little League World Series. They'd be forgiven though as searches for "Little League World Series Betting" is eclipsing that of major tennis matches and pretty much ever Major League Baseball game this week. The betting angle is certain to boost audience numbers, especially since this is a global event. BetOnline advised Gambling911.com their betting handle last year more than doubled.
"We're not here to say whether gambling on 10-, 11- and 12-year-olds is right or wrong, that's up for you to decide (and possibly write about), we're just delivering the information," BetOnline tells Gambling911.com.
Four standout players are being featured in the props, and one is a girl. Kinley Rasmus is the daughter of former MLB pitcher Cory Rasmus and the niece of MLB veteran Colby Rasmus. Both Dad and Uncle also played in the LLBWS for Phenix City, Alabama.
