Further information: Disqualification of Jackie Robinson West Little League from the 2014 Little League World Series

Team Jackie Robinson West was the first all black team to compete in the tournament in several decades. Hailing from the Washington Heights area of Chicago, the team made it all the way to the World Championship before ultimately falling to a team from South Korea.

As the team rose to prominence, Evergreen Park, Illinois, Little League official Chris Janes began to investigate personal information pertaining to players of the Jackie Robinson West team, finding that multiple players on the team lived outside the team's designated boundary region. He later discovered that the team had used a falsified boundary map which covered a wider area than other teams in the region had agreed to. On February 11, 2015, based on Chris Janes' findings, the team's wins and U.S. titles were forfeited for its use of ineligible players. The U.S. title was retroactively awarded to Mountain Ridge Little League of Las Vegas. The Great Lakes title was also stripped from Jackie Robinson West, and given to the team they beat in the regional championship, New Albany, Indiana.

Notes

Little League Baseball subsequently ruled the Jackie Robinson West Little League of Chicago was in violation of geographical restrictions, and retroactively awarded the Great Lakes Regional title to the New Albany Little League of New Albany, Indiana, which had lost to Jackie Robinson West in the Great Lakes Regional final. The players and coaches of New Albany were invited guests to the 2015 tournament. See also Disqualification of Jackie Robinson West Little League from the 2014 Little League World Series.
