The ' The Northwest Region is one of eight United States regions that currently send teams to the Little League World Series, the largest youth baseball competition in the world. The region's participation in the LLWS dates back to 1957, when it was known as the West Region. However, when the LLWS was expanded in 2001 from eight teams (four U.S. teams and four "International" teams from the rest of the world) to 16 teams (eight U.S. and eight International), the Western Region was split into the Northwest and West Regions.

The Northwest Region is made up of six states.

•  Alaska
•  Idaho
•  Montana
•  Oregon
•  Washington
•  Wyoming

Hawaii was a member of the region from 2002–2006. During that time, Wyoming was in the West Region. Colorado was a member in 2001, but has since been put into the Southwest Region.

In 2006, Wyoming returned to compete in the Northwest Region, while Hawaii was moved to the West Region.
