Ripken Baseball®, the leader in youth sports events and facilities, has expanded its All-Ripken brand by creating All-Ripken Softball. The inaugural All-Ripken Softball Games will attract top youth softball players nationwide to compete at The Ripken Experience® Elizabethtown in Kentucky from July 27-30, 2023. Softball players must be nominated by their peers and coaches for the opportunity to train the Ripken Way, compete against elite young athletes, and participate in a world-class youth softball experience.
As part of the 4-day event, participating players will receive instructional opportunities led by professional softball players from the Florida Vibe. The All-Ripken Softball players will also witness the Florida Vibe and Team Alliance take the field to play head-to-head in the Softball Exhibition Series, which is scheduled to take place at Elizabethtown Sports Park on July 27, 28, and 29.
To be eligible to participate in All-Ripken Softball, players must be in high school graduation classes between the Class of 2026 and the Class of 2033 and exhibit an elevated level of softball knowledge, dedication, sportsmanship, and skill.
