invite and encourage you to join your fellow BSSC members at the

official sponsor bars after each game to accrue valuable Social Points

(SP) to be used throughout the season. Miller Lite Beer and our official

bar sponsors help to keep the costs of the BSSC affordable to everyone.

Bars contribute to our sponsorship program because of the large

economic impact members have on their business. Competing bars in the

area did not contribute to making the BSSC affordable to its members.

Therefore, out of respect to the sponsors; on game days, please

patronize only those sponsor bars that are supporting you and the BSSC.

More important, the official sponsor bars are where the entire league goes to grab a cold Miller Lite, meet old friends and make new ones. The names of our sponsor bars are provided on the website, at the beginning of this publication, and on your league shirts.

MED STAR SPORTS MEDICINE SPONSORSHIP
- The BSSC is the ONLY sports & social league in MARYLAND to have an affiliation with MedStar Sports Medicine.
- Although ALL BSSC sports are non-contact, as with all physical activities, people may occasionally sustain an injury. Should this occur, the BSSC has entered into an agreement with MedStar Sports Medicine to provide prompt medical care (for its members) at any one of the four Baltimore-area MedStar hospitals. These hospitals include: Franklin Square, Good Samaritan, Harbor and Union Memorial.
 What is MedStar Sports Medicine and how can it help you as a member of the BSSC ?
Should an injury occur, you will receive a MedStar Sports Medicine identification card provided by a BSSC Staff member.
Your affiliation with the BSSC helps to get you "fast tracked" through the Emergency Department ONLY at the above participating MedStar hospitals.
MedStar Sports Medicine is NOT an insurance company, so it will not pay for any medical claims. Simply present your MedStar Sports Medicine ID card to the Emergency Room registrar (or tell the registration staff person you are a member of the BSSC) and their staff of sports medicine specialists will help to get you back in the game again!
This ID card does NOT provide insurance coverage nor will BSSC be liable for any medical expenses.
If you waived medical attention at the field but later you feel the need to be seen by a professional, please contact the BSSC so they may refer you to MedStar Sports Medicine or if you have a question regarding the services provided to BSSC members by MedStar Sports Medicine, call Jen Pritchett, 410-772-6516, during regular business hours.
