CBUAO Florida Camp March 2022
The CBUAO, in conjunction with Caribbean Baseball and the Palm Beach Challenge, is happy to announce that our 2022 Baseball Umpires Mechanics Clinic is set for March 10 thru March 13. The Santaluces High School Athletic Complex in Lantana, Florida will once again host the event. Umpires will receive extensive plate work as well as training in CCA 3 and 4 umpire crew mechanics. Evaluations are scheduled to be conducted during NCAA D-II regular season contests along with international and independent minor league spring training games. CBUAO President and 3-time College World Series Umpire Nick Zibelli will direct a team of highly trained instructors with NCAA Regional and CWS experience. Our past 6 camps in Sunny Florida have completely sold-out, so register early. Click the link below to register!
