..and the last shall be first.
Yeah, I too first clicked the link and was already in Pavlovian mode to criticize and demean... but... I watched and know what it is like to TRAIN and ORGANIZE said activities, and so far for my 7 million volunteer hours have recieved nothing. Occasionally, a student says "Thanks" or "Good job". That's enough.
I see guys giving their time to HELP some new umpires get better. Part of learning this craft is filtering good instruction from bad. Probably MOST of what this group was getting was good instruction. Was this group BETTER after these sessions? I'll bet yes.
As stated before, amazing how many working amatuer umpires and organizations have no and offer no training. I applaud all the instructors in this video and congratulate all the attendees for caring enough to work to improve.
