This documentary captures the hope, thrills and excitement of players, parents and coaches as a team of 11 - and 12-year-old Little Leaguers go from their small northern California town all the way to the 2002 Little League Baseball World Series Championship in Williamsport, Pennsylvania. Produced by award-winning filmmakers Louis Alvarez and Andrew Kolker, the program takes viewers along for a nail-biting road trip of six intensive weeks with the Aptos, California, Little League team, their inspired coaches and intensely involved parents. The documentary also highlights teams in Albany, New York; Washington, DC; and Elizabeth, New Jersey; and visits Ukraine, where an American benefactor is introducing local youngsters to baseball for the first time.
