Umpire Clinic on Sunday, March 18, 2007, from 1:00 - 2:30 p.m. at Lynndale Park.  We will meet at the concession stand and find an open field, hopefully Field #3.  I encourage all new majors and juniors coaches to be available as we will be discussing a number of different aspects of the game.  It is imperative that you be at the meeting if you wish to umpire in this league.

Here is a short list of topics:

1.  Field Positioning

2.  Communication

3.  Pre-Game Meeting Topics

4.  In-field Fly Rule

5.  Dropped 3rd Strike  (Juniors only)

6.  Strike Zone

7.  Obstruction & Interference

8.  Appeals & Protests
