Our mission is to further develop your skills as an official. Come learn from officials that have seen great success in college baseball.  Add new approaches to your tool belt by learning what has worked for them from candid experience and lessons learned. We have organized a quality staff of chief instructors and conference coordinators for you to learn and gain exposure from!


Are you an experienced official?  Then you know we must grow our abilities and continue our education every year to be the best.  This is why there are camps like this one to continue that growth.  We are all obligated to be the best we can, no matter the level, location, or team.  All skill levels are welcome and instruction will be tailored for officials to improve their current skill set, from beginner to advanced.
