How are injuries handled on the field?
Ripken Baseball works in conjunction with Union Memorial Hospital to provide certified athletic trainers at all of our baseball camp programs. In the event of an injury an athletic trainer will provide an initial evaluation and recommend what course of action needs to be taken. Players may be allowed to resume the activity, may be asked to rest in the shade or may be sent to a local medical facility for x-rays or a more detailed evaluation. Parents are notified immediately if an athletic trainer recommends that a camper be transported off-site for medical care.
