That's a good question. Very little information can be found on most players before high school. I went through a couple of interviews (in Japanese), but the only mention of Little League is volunteering for youth baseball clinics as a professional.
While Shunsuke isn't too common a first name, Watanabe is very common. (You are referring to Shunsuke Watanabe, right?)
Do you have an old team photo? It's hard to tell what a child would grow to look like, but there might be some resemblence.

You could definitely tell Shunsuke by his jawline.
About
This is a site about Pro Yakyu (Japanese Baseball), not about who the next player to go over to MLB is. It's a community of Pro Yakyu fans who have come together to share their knowledge and opinions with the world. It's a place to follow teams and individuals playing baseball in Japan (and Asia), and to learn about Japanese (and Asian) culture through baseball.
It is my sincere hope that once you learn a bit about what we're about here that you will join the community of contributors.

Did S. Watanabe live in the U.S. when he was Little League age? My son played with someone by this name and I had the pleasure to coach him. Any help?
