The BSSC is the ONLY sports & social club in MARYLAND to have an affiliation with MedStar SportsHeath.

What is MedStar SportsHealth and how can it help me as a member of the BSSC?
The BSSC provides various sports and recreational activities that often require people to move; and when people move, they can get hurt or injured. Should this occur, the BSSC has entered into an agreement with MedStar SportsHealth 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.

As a member of BSSC, you have access to a MedStar SportsHealth identification card. Should an injury occur, simply present this ID card to the Emergency Room registrar, and their staff of sports medicine specialists will help to get you back in the game again!

MedStar SportsHealth

In fact, Medstar SportsHealth provides medical care for the Baltimore Ravens, Washington Nationals, Baltimore Blast, Georgetown Hoyas, UMBC Retrievers, Morgan State Bears, the Community Colleges of Dundalk, Harford, Howard, Essex & Catonsville, Goucher College Gophers, Loyola Greyhounds and organizations like the Cirque de Soliel, the Volvo World Ocean Races, the NBA, the PGA & the NHL.
    In addition to providing prompt care for BSSC members when they are injured, MedStar SportsHealth provides low cost health enhancement services for members of BSSC as well. These include:
Health screenings for: Cholesterol & blood lipids, Blood pressure, Diabetes, Prostate Cancer
Vaccinations for: Flu, Hepatitis B

As a BSSC member… how do you get a MedStar SportsHealth I.D. card?
All members are given one if they need to go to a MedStar Hospital Emergency Room for a BSSC sports-related injury.
If you are not injured and want to receive a card, or you have a question regarding the services provided to BSSC members by MedStar SportsHealth, call Kim @ 410-772-6516. 

 

                    

 

 

 

 

  The Sweet Baby Grace Fund

Tony & Alysia were orginal members who met while playing in the BSSC, got engaged and were married. I was invited to their wedding along with other friends they had made through the BSSC.

On May 31st 2005 they had their first baby, Grace. Around four months of age their baby was diagnosed with a fatal and untreatable disease called Krabbe disease. Krabbe disease is a rare disorder leading to degeneration of the nervous system and occurs in about 1 in 100,000 births worldwide. Affected families have a 1 in 4 chance of having a child with the disease. It is caused by the shortage of an enzyme called galactosylceramidase (GALC), which leads to
a progressive loss of myelin that covers many nerves. Without myelin, nerves in the brain and other parts of the body cannot function properly.
On Saturday, June 3rd, 2006 Grace lost her battle with this disease.

Part of a letter I received:
Tony & Alysia
We have felt helpless for so long as we know many of you have. To celebrate and honor Grace’s life, we have created a fund in her name. The Sweet Baby Grace Fund will be used to help with Grace Care and support research. We hope that in Grace’s memory, a cure can be found so that other families can see their babies survive this horrible disease.

Contributions to Sweet Baby Grace Fund can be sent to:
