Last year there was a Gerry Davis clinic on LI. I can let you know if anything is happening on LI again. There are some good clinics if you want to travel a little and not that expensive either, for what you get.

Independent Baseball Umpires Association (IBUA) has a history of running some pretty good local clinics. I understand it is a small association and may have combined with another group but I can provide you a phone number of you e-mail me at [email protected].

Hi fellow east coaster (I'm from NY). There used to be a clinic sponsered by collegiate umpires in Long Island. The clinic last year was supposed to be held in the middle of August, (I can't remember the association off the top of my head) but it folded.

The closest I know of (East Coast) is the clinic conducted in Atlanta Georgia. This clinic also deals specifically with the 2 man mechancis, which for most of us amateurs is what we do. I believe the dates for this clinic are February 14th to 17th 2002. I have all the info at home, if you are interested E-Mail me and I will give you the phone number.

If things ok, I plan on attending.
