We teach the basics for beginners, establishing a good foundation with rules and then field training drills to round out the learning experience. Our sessions cover everything you need to know to begin umpiring at the amateur level without spending weeks in class or thousands of dollars. Our intense daily drills accelerate the learning experience.
