District IV Baseball Umpire Clinic

The 2012 District IV baseball umpire clinic will be held Saturday, March 17 at Danville High School. Please notice the change to the 3rd Saturday in March instead of the 2nd Saturday in March. This was done to accomodate PIAA basketball playoffs scheduled for the 2nd Saturday. Registration begins at 8:00 a.m. Lunch will be at 12:30 followed by an additional classroom session. Cost for the clinic will be $32 per person if registrations are to Kurt Reichenbach by Feb. 28, 2012. After the 28th the cost will be $37 each. Information on registration, on-line, will be available in December. Please check back here for registration information. This is a great opportunity to learn new techniques and hone your skills. Attendance at the clinic does qualify for one of your mandatory 6 chapter meetings. I have attended all but one of these clinics since beginning my umpire career. I plan to be at this one, too! Well worth my time and money, I think it will be for you as well.
