Houston, TX Clinic and other locations by SCUA. After reading the details I will be attending. Hopefully make some new connections and enhance my skills.

Hello All, New to the site but have been umpire for quite some time now! I will be attending the 2014 TUS session, and I really do hope to get somewhere in pro baseball. 21 years old from the twin cities in Minnesota. I would consider my self a knowledgeable umpire in rules mechanics and equipment. It blows my mind how umpiring has become an obsession of mine so quickly. I work Junior college, American Legion, Varsity, and amateur baseball. Looking to get all the information I can from anyone regarding anything umpire related. If you have been to school I would love to pick your brain. Every other dedicated umpire the same goes to you! Cody Loe

Hello guys, I'm from Puerto Rico and I'm planning to buy some new equipment, what CP you guys recommend? I'm 6'1. What mask? For the shoes I'm a reebok fan but what about the new NB plate and base shoes? What about ball bags? And pants if you guys can make a list or something for me about what it should be best and also what ump school should I attend on 2014? Thank you!

Hi guys. I'm planning on attending this camp so wanted to put the info here. Black and Blue Camp that is usually held in Sacramento will make a satellite appearance in Redding on September 27th through 30th. Billy Haze, Jeff Henrichs, Billy Speck, and Scott Latender will be some of the instructors. These are Pac-12 and/or NCAA World Series umpires. Impressive gathering of talent for a small area like Northern California. I believe N.Calif. college assignor Martinez might also be there. It's open for high school and college guys. Field instruction, class work, and live games are on the itinerary. The cost is only $150! Cutoff is August 31st. Contact Hank Bowen at rcushank@sbcglobal.net for more info.
