Step 1 • Tournament
Your Ripken week
Choose the age group and number of registered players/coaches your family is responsible for paying.
OFFICIAL 2027 RIPKEN PRICE • Published Ripken participant rate.
Usually your player; add a coach only if your family is paying that participant charge.
Team rule: Ripken lists a 13-participant minimum (players + coaches) for the week-long experience. The calculator uses only the participant charges your household is paying—not the entire team's bill.
Automatically $0: spectator gate admission and event parking. Ripken says there are no gate or parking fees for these week-long Myrtle Beach experiences.
Step 2 • Family & lodging
Where is everyone staying?
Ripken does not require families to stay at an event hotel, so lodging is a family-specific cost. Enter your actual quote when you have one.
PLANNING ESTIMATE • Replace with your hotel/condo quote. Not an official Ripken rate.
USER ESTIMATE • Especially important for resorts and vacation rentals.
No stay-to-play requirement: Ripken says Myrtle Beach families may choose where they stay. That makes your own hotel or rental quote more accurate than a made-up “official hotel price.”
Step 3 • Travel
Getting to Myrtle Beach
PLANNING ESTIMATE • Edit for your expected trip.
Step 4 • Food & vacation
The costs around the baseball
USER ESTIMATE • Replace with your family budget.
Beach, water park, mini golf, attractions, etc.
Not added to your estimate. Used only to show a safer upper-end budget.
Ripken promotes Myrtle Beach as both baseball and a family vacation. Keeping entertainment separate lets parents see the tournament trip cost without pretending optional vacation spending is mandatory.
