Every year, we are pushing the training curriculum to continually improve and look for the best way to umpire baseball games at the college level. However, we don’t lose sight of the tried-and-true methods umpires must master. This camp sets a high bar and gives you the tools to reach it.
Our curriculum continually evolves to enhance the skills of umpires. We concentrate on developing accuracy and calibrating strike zones with video analysis. We dissect and diagnose plays’ starting and final positions, including preparing for secondary and potential plays.
Special Focus! Special Price!
The Kansas City Clinic emphasizes using laser and virtual reality training to enhance strike zone accuracy at an astounding low registration fee of $85 for the entire clinic.
