umpire schools & clinics

[brandda]

I would go on the net and look under "umpire schools" or "umpire clinics". There are usually a flurry of them held in February for about a week all over the country (I know of one near San Antonio that I am planning to attend next year), and I am sure there is one out by you. It's been a while since I looked at it, but I remember thinking the cost was pretty reasonable.

Alternatively, organizations like Gerry Davis Sports can bring the school to you if your league wants to foot the bill and have all of the umps trained at once.
