Umpire Class Suggestions

[default]

With my daughter's season now being over by the end of May (college), I'm thinking about getting back on the field in the role of Officiating. I've looked into a couple of "Umpire Training Classes", but I seem to think they're charging a bit much.

Can I get a few ideas for other training venues in N.E. Ohio?

Central district NFHS/high school softball officiating classes start January 18th. I'm not sure what they're charging you in NE Ohio, but our class is $115.

This includes approximately 25 hours of classroom training, all training materials (including rule books, case books and umpire manuals), final testing for certification and your annual OHSAA officiating dues. That annual fee alone is $60, whether you're taking the class or not, so you're really only paying $55 for the class.
