Immersion or pouring are accepted in the Catholic Church. Sprinkling is no longer used.

Sprinkling isn’t? Why?

Because water must flow on the skin as the words are being spoken. Sprinkling leaves too much of a chance that this may not happen if a large group is sprinkled. I do not mean to say that a Baptism by sprinkling would be considered invalid, it should not be used for a Catholic Baptism for the above reason. And if used may cause the need for a conditional Baptism.
