Game Format:

Each game will be scheduled for 6 innings, with no new inning starting after the 1 hour and 45-minute mark. There will be a 7-run limit per inning, except for the final inning, which will be played without a run cap.

Run Rule:
15 after 4 innings, 8 after 5 innings

Why the Run Limit?

Player safety and health are our top priorities. The run limit is in place to help prevent pitcher overuse and reduce the risk of injury throughout the event.

How many games will be played?  

Every team will play a minimum of four games, including three pool play games and at least one bracket game. *This is subject to change. 

How is playing time determined?

Playing time is determined with player development as the top priority. Our goal is to provide all athletes with meaningful opportunities to contribute in a structured, competitive environment. Each player is guaranteed at least one full game at their primary position during the event. However, those innings may be spread across multiple games rather than taking place all in one.

How much can I expect my player to pitch?

Pitching innings will be distributed as evenly as possible among all eligible pitchers on the roster. Coaches do reserve the right to adjust pitching opportunities based on in-game performance, workload, and player safety.

How is the batting order created?

Coaches will use a rolling batting order to ensure that all players receive a fair and consistent number of at-bats throughout the event.

ADD-ON OPPORTUNITY:

Each All-Ripken location features a Player Card Combine evaluation that takes place before gameplay begins. Players participate in different skill evaluation stations to determine their ratings for their official All-Ripken Player Card while gaining valuable instruction.

The Player Card Combine is a great way to determine where your player stands in comparison to other players from around the country in your player’s age division. A scaled rating system based on the specific age division of the player is used to determine the scores.

All players cards (in a digital format) are released after all the summer events are completed. Once released, you will also have the opportunity to order a set of physical baseball cards of your Player Card for a family keepsake.

The Player Card Combine is an additional add-on opportunity that costs $125 per player.

This is an optional add-on opportunity, available during the registration process. 

Cost to participate: $75

Refund Policy: For the All-Ripken Games, once a registration fee is paid, no refunds will be issued via cash, check, or credit card.
