Ripken Baseball Academy - Aberdeen, MD
Have you ever been to Aberdeen, Maryland? No? Well if you're a diehard baseball fan or youth baseball parent I suggest you consider making plans to stop through or stay for a night. In the past 3 years what was once a quaint stop off of Interstate 95 has quickly become a destination for children, families, and teams to play, learn and cherish the game of baseball.
The Ripken Academy consists of a youth-sized version of Oriole Park at Camden Yards, known as Cal Sr.'s Yard and youth-sized replicas of Wrigley Field, Fenway Park and Memorial Stadium. The Academy boasts a one-of-a-kind circular training infield, batting cages and a tee/soft-toss area.
Tournaments in Aberdeen include:
- 3 game minimum (weekend tournaments), 4 game minimum (holiday tournaments)
- Official Nike Baseballs and Certified Umpires
- Games on Ripken Academy's signature, professional-quality fields
- Access to the entire complex, including concessions, on-site photography, merchandise venues, batting cages, pitching mounds & more!
In 2006, this unique youth baseball destination attracted players and families from 45 states with over 8,500 participants and over 20,000 visitors. The complex continues to grow and improve - "The Warehouse" located at our Oriole Park at Camden Yards opens its doors as a Marriott hotel in December 2006.
