The new lights at
World Series Field
at Heritage Park
aren't made of gold,
but we hope to help
pay for them by
selling a little
gold.
Gold-plated coins
commemorating the
“Light Up the
Series” effort that
will light up the
Junior League World
Series in August are
being sold for $20

is numbered and has a grooved edge like
a quarter. One side has an artist’s
rendering of World Series Field and
“1981,” the year the series started. The
other side has a rendering of baseball
field lights.

2011 World Series
The 31st annual Junior
League World Series of baseball will be
played August 14-20, 2011, at World
Series Field in beautiful Heritage Park
in Taylor, Michigan – the only place the
prestigious event has been held.
Heritage Park is just six miles from
Detroit Metropolitan Airport and a short
distance from both I-75 and I-94.
The Junior League World Series is a
spectacular weeklong international
tournament for the best teams of 13- and
14-year-old baseball players from around
the world. Founded in 1981, the Junior
League World Series is the “older
brother” of the Little League World
Series held annually in Williamsport,
Pennsylvania, for the best teams of
12-year-olds.
Like the Little League series, the
Junior League World Series has a storied
history. The Junior League World Series
began as a tournament for the best teams
of 13-year-old players. It has blossomed
to include 14-year-olds and now attracts
teams from around the globe: from
Europe, the Middle East, Africa, Latin
America, the Asia-Pacific region, Canada
and, of course, the United States. To
date, teams have come from 27 different
states in the U.S., four Canadian
provinces, Mexico, Puerto Rico, Belgium,
Saudi Arabia, the Czech Republic,
Germany, Guam, Poland, Venezuela,
Saipan, Russia, and The Netherlands and
Indonesia, which debuted in 2006 after
winning the regional tournament held for
teams from the Asia-Pacific region.
Ample motels,
restaurants, churches and shopping malls
are in the immediate area.
