1976 Little League World Series

The 1976 Little League World Series was the 30th Little League World Series. A Japanese team won for the third time, as Chofu from Tokyo beat Campbell, CA 10-3 in the finale. Kiyoshi Tsumura of Japan tossed the second perfect game in LLWS history, doing so against Germany's Kaiserslautern club. No future major leaguers appeared but a future NHL All-Star, Ray Ferraro, played for Trail, BC. Taiwan's entry was managed by Huan-Hsun Song.
