Best Ever
This past camp was THE best ever. The intensity we had in every session was grueling and demanding. But we continue to learn and seek to know more every day, every week, every month, every game. Westudy, read, watch videos, attend games seeking to be the best we can—- and thats what this camp instilled
Excellent Clinic
Thank you so much for providing this excellent clinic. Most of us do not realize what all is entailed to put it on. I only see a small portion of it in attending the softball portion of it. All I can say is THANX FOR ALL OF YOUR EFFORTS! Best Regards
Well Done
Just wanted to pass along that I thought the last session that group H had yesterday (the scenarios and “what-ifs”) was by far the best part of the camp for me. I’ve been umping for a while now and have been fortunate to attend a couple of instructional clinics in the past; yours was the first
Thank You
As the high school baseball season draws to an end, I just wanted to say thank you for being able to attend your umpiring camp. There is not enough space to detail how much what I learned at your camp which in turn has made me a better umpire…but more importantly, striving to continue to
Very Impressed
I just wanted to thank you for all the time you put into this camp and I was very impressed and more important I learned alot and hope to be doing High School Baseball this coming year and many more. Please also pass this onto the entire group that helped out for it was a
Great
I want to let you know I attended South East Michigan Umpire camp over the weekend for the second year have to say it was great. What a way for Umpires to work together as a team and develop their skills by watching fellow umpires of all levels of baseball experience.
Very Well Run
Good Morning, I wanted to let you know we really enjoyed our weekend. The camp was very well run this year and I’m sure you will continue to make more changes in the future.
Amazed
I’m still amazed at how many umpires don’t take the time to come to camps. And it was great to get the rules meeting out of the way.
Excellent
As I said in my email to Bill yesterday I thought the camp was excellent. All the instructors made it very informative and worthwhile. With the level of experience most the instructors you have, it could easily have been intimidating but it felt like being on the field with your partner for 20 years which
Very Nice Job
Not much I would change – very nice job! Thanks for having it and all the work you guys put into making it work!!
Great Camp
Thanks for a great camp. Thought I’d let you know page 38 of the new issue of Referee has the NFHS ruling on 3rd strike and when is B1 out on a dropped 3rd strike and he doesn’t attempt to go to first. The question is almost exactly as stated at camp. I know the
Eye Opening
Dear Bill, just wanted to thank you and the entire staff for your effort in running the camp. Like I said in my evaluation I have been involved in baseball for more that 45 years, playing, coaching from T-ball -travel -American Legion- High School- Class A. I was sure I was prepared to be an
Look Forward to Next Year
Bill: Thanks so much for a great camp, interesting subjects and the quality of the instructors. As I enter my second season of umpiring, the clinic showed me in many areas how much I still have to learn and allowed me to really start perfecting the quality of game I call. I look forward to
I wasn’t in umpire mode
I wasn't in Umpire mode when I showed up, but am looking forward to the season now. It always helps to get reminded of the areas that need improvement, and I really thought this one was better than last year. The Steven was really helpful between plays in the field house drills and the guys
I wish we had one more camp
I wish we had one more camp before season starts, I have learned and polished up on some things from both camps. Extremely pleased and happy you all put in the work and effort to help us become better. I would recommend these camps to anyone who wants to improve their skills -Daniel Jackson
I enjoyed and appreciated
I participated in this year's SEMUC and, as I did last year, enjoyed it and appreciated the instruction by all of the instructors. All of the camps.have assisted me immensely with my mechanics. Some have said that the instructors are tough on the participants, however, I appreciated the feedback from the instructors in any fashion.
I learned at every station
I probably got the most out of the cage work with Sean and Jim. Learned a lot with Nate and Scott in the field house too. It was all good and I learned something at every station and from all the instructors It's a great group of guys all around. -Larry Ward
Great job
Just to re-emphasize, you guys did a great job at the camp last weekend. I enjoyed the instructors, even when they were critical of mechanics and rules knowledge. They made it fun! -Dave Sichterman
Very please with ALL instructors
Very pleased with ALL the instructors personal coaching. The proper positioning to make the right call is paramount in all cases. Never realized that my behind the plate view and positioning was off to the extent it was as well as my eyes not following the entire pitch. Kudos to all involved with the "Planning & Orchestration" of
