Seven Umpires representing leagues in Florida District 1 attended the Little League Southeastern Region 2-Umpire Mechanics Clinic Feb 23-24, 2019 in Warner Robins, GA. This group of volunteers represented the entire District well and was the largest group of Umpires from any District in the Southeastern Region! The weekend clinic provided the umpires with detailed instruction on all principles of field and plate mechanics for the two-man umpire system. Through on-field simulation and participation from experienced volunteers, the training these umpires received will be extremely beneficial as we prepare for regular season play.

“This weekend clinic was a great opportunity for new and experienced umpires alike. Not only did we have a great time with our local group, but we all got to meet and work with other umpires from the Region. The instruction is always top notch and you will not find a better group of instructors anywhere in Little League.” (Jessi Vikara, FL District 1)

If you are interested in becoming an Umpire, please contact your local league UIC or District UIC.
