We are 70+ members with 14 working professional basebal

l (A to AAA) & 17 working college baseball (JUCO to D1). Our training is based on how things are taught at professional schools and at college camps and clinics. It is because of this training; i.e., Pre-season classes, in-game evaluations, video, email critiques and in-season clinics that sets up apart. It’s our job to show you the professional ways to do things, evaluate your talent and put you in the best position to be successful. The clinics and classes will include the rules, positioning, mechanics, appearance, where to look when making a call, how to make a call and how to handle situations.

The struggle is real!

For umpiring recreational-league baseball in Bel Air, Md., Tom Howell IV gets $40 a game. It’s a nice way for him to earn some extra cash outside of his day job as the head of product marketing for a fintech company.

But “I would do it regardless of the money,” says the 50-year-old Howell. “There’s a dearth of umpires in general. And it would be terrible if a team wasn’t able to play because there weren’t enough umpires.”

That dearth extends well beyond baseball, touching almost every sport in recreational and school athletics. Officiating deficiencies have led to canceled games and shortened seasons. Some games are played with fewer officials, generating complaints from spectators about the quality of the officiating. Existing officials, already stretched thin, are being asked to take even more assignments, which leads to burnout and even higher turnover.

With officiating at a breaking point, experts in school athletics are pushing for changes in the way sports officials are recruited, trained and, most important, treated on the playing field.
