Emphasis will be placed on new rule changes and the proper interpretation of all other rules. Also to be covered will be umpire positions, techniques and many other very important points of interest.
Each registrant will receive a packet upon arrival to the clinic. This packet will contain 2009 Little League Baseball and Softball rulebooks, the Umpire Manual and "Making the Right Call."
