District 13 for the first time as its own identity. For many years the generic pin was used for the final 2 teams at all levels in the tournament, the 2010 season be the premier of the first district pin to be received by the players in the final games. We answer at the district level for the players that were tired of the same old pins so we moved forward and made a pin with the year as a true token for their success in the Little League Tournament. We hope this will be a continuing year after year.
