9u - 12u Bat Rules:
Players in the 9U, 10U, 11U, and 12U divisions may use:
USSSA Certified Bats displaying the USSSA 1.15 BPF thumbprint/logo.
There is no maximum barrel diameter for USSSA-approved bats.
Any length-to-weight drop (e.g., -5, -8, -10, -11, -12) is permitted, provided the bat carries the required USSSA certification.
13/14u Bat Rules:
Players in the 13U/14U Combined Division may use bats that meet one of the following standards:

All-Ripken Games Recommendation
While both USSSA 1.15 BPF and BBCOR .50 bats are permitted in the 13U/14U Combined Division, we strongly recommend and encourage players to use the bat that best aligns with the rules and equipment standards of their regular league or travel program.
For example:
13U players who regularly compete with a USSSA-certified bat are encouraged to continue using their legal USSSA bat.
14U players who regularly compete under BBCOR rules are strongly encouraged to swing a BBCOR (-3) bat to best prepare for high school and other BBCOR-required competition.
Our goal is to provide players with a competitive experience while allowing them to use the equipment that best supports their continued development.
Every team will play a minimum of four games, including three pool play games and at least one bracket or consolation game.
This is subject to change
Each player is guaranteed 6 innings at their registered primary position (Pitching is included in overall primary position innings) throughout the duration of the event. Please note that this may be spread across multiple games.
Pitching: Each pitcher will be guaranteed at least ONE appearance during the tournament. While we are committed to providing opportunities for all players, coaches reserve the right to remove a player from the game based on performance, workload, or safety concerns.
Batting: Teams will use a rolling lineup managed by their coach. Each lineup will pick up wherever it concluded in the previous game. For example: If the game ends with the 8th hitter on deck, the 8th hitter will bat first in the next game.

Frequently Asked Questions
What age group/division do I sign my player up for?
Players are placed in an age group based on their age prior to April 30, 2026.
Whatever age they were before that date determines their eligible age group.
For Example: If PLAYER is 10 years old before 4/30/26, they would compete at the 10u age division.
When will the detailed schedule be released?
The full game, practice, and overview schedule will be available two weeks (14 Days) before the event.
What color pants and socks should my player wear?
Players should bring white pants and red, navy blue, or neutral socks to coordinate with team uniforms.
All-Ripken merchandise will be available for purchase on-site and online at the official All-Ripken Team Store.
How is playing time determined?
All players are guaranteed a minimum of six total innings at their primary position during the
event. If a player pitches during games, those innings pitched will count toward their six guaranteed primary-position innings. Please note that this may be spread across multiple games.
Batting: Teams will use a rolling lineup managed by their coach. Each lineup will pick up wherever it is concluded in the previous game. For example: If the game ends with the 8th hitter on deck, the 8th hitter will bat first in the next game.
What if my athlete’s primary position is filled?
You may register your athlete at their secondary position and list their primary position as the secondary position during registration. Our staff will make every effort to provide playing time at both positions when possible. However, only the position listed as the primary position at registration is guaranteed six innings of play over the course of the event.
How are teams determined?
Teams are formed by:
Age group
Primary position
Can players request to be on the same team?
No teammate requests will be honored unless for siblings or immediate family members.
Please email: Baseball@allripken.com
How are event capacities set?
Capacities are determined by:
● Facility and field availability
● Number of game slots per day
● Player slots per team and age group
Will age groups be combined?
Yes: 13U and 14U age groups will be combined unless there are enough participants and sufficient field space to separate them into their own divisions.
No: All other age groups remain separate unless otherwise notified in advance.
Age division combinations, if necessary, will be finalized and communicated approximately 14 days prior to the event when the official tournament schedule is released.
At that time, all registered families will receive an email with the event schedule and any updates regarding combined age divisions. Our team carefully evaluates registration numbers to create the best possible competitive experience for all participants.
How does the waitlist work?
If the event is full or at capacity, players can join the waitlist with no payment required.
If a spot becomes available, families will be contacted in order of waitlist sign-up.
If you haven't been contacted 14 days before the event, all spots have been filled.
How do I register for the Home Run Derby?
This is an add-on item, and there are limited spots available. Once sold out, this add-on experience will no longer be available for purchase.
Please visit the Add-On Experiences tab on the home screen to find the registration link.
What is the Futures Games selection process?
The All-Ripken Futures Games showcases a select group of players who have earned the opportunity to compete among the top performers from the All-Ripken Games summer season. Invitations are extended based on evaluations completed by our coaching staff throughout each event.
A player's overall baseball skill level serves as the primary factor in the selection process. Coaches evaluate each athlete's offensive and defensive abilities, athleticism, and overall impact on the field. Beyond physical talent, coaches also consider the qualities that contribute to long-term success in the game, including game instincts, competitiveness, work ethic, coachability, leadership, and the way players represent themselves as teammates throughout the event.
Selection to the Futures Games is a recognition of both baseball ability and the qualities that define a complete player, honoring athletes who demonstrate excellence in all aspects of the game.
Do you offer recommended hotels or lodging discounts?
This is your family vacation, so you choose where you want to stay – no requirements.
At the All-Ripken Games, we have contracted hotels and vacation rentals to ensure teams have
accommodation options at the lowest possible rate.
What is the All Ripken Refund Policy?
For the All-Ripken Games, the initial $149.00 payment is a non-refundable and
non-transferable deposit. Once a registration fee is paid, no refunds will be issued via cash,
check, or credit card.
Any remaining balance paid beyond the $149.00 deposit may be issued as a credit if the
participant is unable to attend. Credits may be applied toward a future All Ripken event and must
be used by the end of the following calendar year, subject to event availability and registration
deadlines. After that time, all remaining funds become non-refundable and non-transferable.
Credits are not valid for Futures Games participation.
What is the Inclement Weather policy?
All Ripken Games follows Ripken Baseball inclement weather protocols. Game schedules, formats, and field assignments may be adjusted to ensure participant safety and maximize gameplay. Every reasonable effort will be made to complete scheduled games, including modifying game length, format, or timing as necessary. All decisions regarding weather delays, postponements, or cancellations are made by All Ripken Games staff and venue officials and are final.
If weather-related issues result in games not being completed, a credit may be issued based on
the number of games not completed, excluding the non-refundable $149.00 deposit. Any such
credit will be determined at All Ripken Games’ discretion and applied toward a future All
Ripken event, subject to availability and registration deadlines.
In no event will All Ripken Games be liable for travel, lodging, or any other expenses incurred by the registrant or any affiliated parties in connection with a canceled, delayed, or rescheduled event.
