I am trying to locate a FP (Fed) mechanics video to use at an association meeting. These are Fed softball umpires but any small diamond video that could be adapted would be OK. Any and all suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Below is a link to the VHS tapes that NFHS has available at this time. You might find something that you can use there.

Mark,
Better than the videos that are available, I think the site is Epicsoftware.com. These are the folks who put together the cd that ASA & NCAA will use for mechanics - it's valid for Fed, too (The Fed mechanics manual is just about identical to the ASA mechanics manual). Get the cd - after shipping I think it's $25. I think they've got a demo at the site, too.

I have purchased the CD that Epic Software put out and we at Suburban Umpires Assoc. in the Chicago area will be using it at our 4th weekend Umpire clinic this Sunday. I have been preparing myself to show it at the clinic and it's great.
