The Little League World Series seeks to determine which country has the best little league national team. It takes 10-12 year boys who just love the game from across the globe and places them on a world stage for their home countries to cheer them on. This annual, high stakes tournament attracts attention from media outlets and baseball diehards all over as they watch 16 teams whittle down to one champion.

Amidst all of the intensity of competition, a lot of attention is drawn off the field as of late. In fact, what is happening is far from baseball related, but it is just as much a part of the Little League World Series is as the phrase “Play ball!” or the National Anthem.

We, of course, are talking about the downhill sledding that happens on the hills behind the field. And this sledding is happening on your typical toboggan. These high-speed, down-hill runs are taking place atop scrap pieces of corrugated sheets (more commonly known as cardboard).

And this isn’t just for the kids either! The Chicago Cubs were recently in attendance at the Little League World Series and joined in on the fun! ESPN got footage of Joe Maddon, Cubs Manager, and Anthony Rizzo, Cubs First Baseman, shredding downhill as well.

From shipping, to moving, or storing, we know that corrugated sheets and boxes are highly versatile in their uses. But this has to be one of our favorites! So take that stack of boxes you’ve meaning to recycle all these months, find a slick hill, and have some fun!
