    Fields & Facilities

The Ripken Experience® Myrtle Beach is a one-of-a-kind complex consisting of 4 regulation-sized diamonds and 5 youth/softball diamonds, all designed after historic ballparks like Griffith Field, Navin Field, and Polo Grounds.

Each field features a popular synthetic playing surface that professional and collegiate teams use worldwide. Benefits of playing on these surfaces include consistent play and reduction in risk of rain-outs.
