Imagine hitting a ball over the Green Monster at Fenway, or digging a ball out of the ivy at Wrigley, or hitting a towering homer off the warehouse at Camden Yards. This can be turned into reality when your tournament team plays a weekend at our beautiful The Ripken Experience - Aberdeen, MD. All fields at the complex are scaled down versions of these timeless classics, including Wrigley Field, Fenway Park, Camden Yards (Cal Sr.'s Yard), and Old Memorial Stadium. With the addition of Citizens Bank and Nationals Park, both which include synthetic infields and natural grass outfields, the total now comes to 6 signature youth fields. Our facility is complete with numerous batting cages, two synthetic training areas, and many other amenities that make it a first class tournament destination for teams across the nation.

Many restaurants and activities surround the complex, including Ripken Stadium where you can enjoy a great night of minor league baseball for an even better price. Also, Aberdeen is a 30 minute drive from Baltimore where you can take in all the sights and sounds that the Charm City has to offer.
