Umpire Training

Each umpire is given a minimum of 15 hours of training prior to officiating their first game.  Follow-up sessions are held throughout the season to reinforce proper techniques, answer questions, and evaluate performance.   Training for umpires is held in January, February and March, and includes both classroom and field work.   Umpire training concludes with practice games.  Coaches and Managers are also invited to attend umpire training in order to better understand the job of the umpire and/or the league rules.
