Returning Baseball umpires generally start training in January with college instructors in classroom environments. New Umpire training is held twice a year (JAN and AUG) covering four nights with outside work as much as possible. It costs roughly $300 to $500 to purchase protective gear to officiate baseball but returns are good if you stick with it! Recreation Umpire pay ranges from $28 to $60 a game with scholastic pay a little higher. |
