Last action January 27, 2026 · House Read and Adopted

A Georgia House resolution formally congratulates the Vine Ingle Junior Boys All-Star Team, a 14-year-old Little League squad, for winning the United States Junior League World Series Championship.

In plain language

This resolution from the Georgia House of Representatives honors the Vine Ingle Junior Boys All-Star Team, a Junior League (14-year-old boys) baseball team, for its accomplishments over two seasons. The team posted a 24-5 record, won the Intermediate World Series, the Junior League World Series, two District Five Championships, two Georgia State Championships, and two Southeast Regional Championships, and earned the right to compete for the World Series Championship against Chinese Taipei. The resolution names the players and coaches and states that the House congratulates the team for one of the most accomplished Junior League runs in Little League history and wishes them continued success. It also directs the Clerk of the House of Representatives to prepare a copy of the resolution for distribution to the team. The resolution has no regulatory effect and does not change any Georgia law.

What the bill does

  • Formally congratulates the Vine Ingle Junior Boys All-Star Team for its Junior League World Series Championship and overall two-season record.
  • Lists the names of the 13 players and the head coach and two assistant coaches being honored.
  • Directs the Clerk of the House of Representatives to prepare a copy of the resolution for distribution to the team.

Who it affects
