BRAND NEW CURRICULUM
FCU in cooperation with Manny Salazar and Tony Thompson will hold a fall camp October 22-24 in Daytona Beach, FL. This camp is the official tryout for new FCU applicants for the 2011 collegiate baseball season. It is also an umpire improvment camp for current FCU umpires. The curriculum is based on evaluations by FCU observers during the 2010 season. Along with actual games, classroom sessions and on-the-field role playing situations will be used to zero in on the biggest problems that occur during a baseball contest. Any umpire, at any level, that wants to improve their evaluations would benefit from this camp. Game management will be stressed with proven techniques on handling those tough but common discussions. If you don't feel that you are getting the right games by your assignors, these problems may be holding you back. Learn how the top umpires communicate with players, coaches and game mangement personnel to get their needs addressed. Learn to stay out of trouble with proper mechanics and keeping everyone calm. Be approachable without appearing weak!
FCU IMPROVEMENT CAMPERS
FCU umpires need to seriously consider attending this camp. Most professionals have to attend periodical workshops to hone their skills. Consider this camp a step in that direction. If you are considering moving up the ladder and need to improve your game management this camp can assist you.
NEW FCU APPLICANTS
New applicants for FCU, this camp is a must! You can attend the clinic and get a game tryout in front of FCU evaluators. We always add new staff every season. We will look at your talents, your availability and your geographic location and possibly add you to the FCU staff in 2011. Our schools are located from Miami to Ft. Myers to Valdosta, GA to Beaufort, SC and all points between. We schedule at least fifty-five schools, NCAA D1, D2, NAIA and FCCAA.
CONFERENCE UMPIRE STAFFS
Many umpires are trying to get on a conference staff. FCU represents the Sunshine State Conference, The Sun Conference and three FCCAA conferences. Get on the field and show us that you should be chosen. Also Tony Thompson represents nine D1 conferences and one D2 conference in the southeastern USA.
So if you are tired of that same old camp that puts you on the field or in the cage without much instruction; this camp is for you!
Send me an email and I will forward the camp brochure on to you.
