Ripken Baseball’s Post

We’re excited to recognize and show appreciation for our first responders at The Ripken Experience Myrtle Beach this week. In partnership with The Coca-Cola Company, we’re offering special perks to attendees of our First Responders Appreciation Lunch. As a thank you, attendees will receive two complimentary participants for a 2025 week-long tournament at either The Ripken Experience® Myrtle Beach or The Ripken Experience® at Walt Disney World®. We’re grateful for all that you do, and we look forward to welcoming you back to The Ripken Experience! #youthsports #baseball #firstresponders

We're honored to announce that Ripken Baseball's All-Ripken Games have been named a 2024 SportsTravel Award Winner today as "Best New Event." While team participation remains a cornerstone of Ripken Baseball, the All-Ripken Games have created a unique and exciting opportunity for individual players and their families to play at iconic venues like Cooperstown All Star Village and our Ripken Experiences. As we wrapped up our season earlier this month, the demand for All-Ripken continues to soar. In 2024, we expanded to 12 four-day events, including two outside of Ripken facilities. And this December, we’ll host the inaugural All-Ripken Futures Games in Panama City Beach. Thank you to SportsTravel Magazine & the TEAMS Conference & Expo for the recognition!

The All-Ripken Games have taken off in year number two! The lessons learned, memories made, and new friendships forged are unique to All-Ripken, where teams are constructed for one tournament over four days. Talented young players come together from different backgrounds, experiences, skills, and personalities. New bonds form every week on the field and in the stands. As you can see in this video, the results are magical! All-Ripken allows individual players and their families to experience many of the world's best youth facilities, including The Ripken Experience™. This year's schedule features 12 tournaments in 10 states, including two of our most popular All-Ripken events happening over Labor Day Weekend at Cooperstown All Star Village and The Ripken Experience™ Aberdeen. Thanks to all the coaches, players, parents, and families who make All-Ripken a special event across the country. More to come! #youthsports #baseball
