Every clinic I have ever attended had a price attached to it.

I have attended the MLB camp at the Compton facility, both the 1 week and the one day. They do teach the basics such as the pivot, out call, safe call, etc... so it is not really a great camp for the experienced ump looking to improve. It was worth it to me to be able to hear some war stories from the ol' grizzlies that speak. Also I had Larry Young as the instructor in the cage. After the camp he asked me who I worked for and sent glowing evals to my College assignors. Very classy.

There were no local college umpires instructing at the MLBUC and no scabs. PBUC supervisors covered the 2 man system. I would say they are familiar with that system. Eight umpires went on to their choice of umpire schools. The other 50 or so attendees came out of the course as better umpires.
