Special Restrictions about Classes for 1s & 2s
If you are a High School umpire classified as a '1' or a '2' then you have the option of attending classes at St. Mary's High School, Dobson High School, Gilbert High School or Greenway High School.

Each week there will be classes at St. Mary's on Monday, Dobson on Tuesday, Gilbert on Wednesday or Greenway on Wednesday. The agenda each week will be the same at all four locations. For instance:
if the agenda for week one is "Pitching" then the lecture at St.Mary's on Monday night would be 'Pitching' and the lecture at Dobson on Tuesday night would be 'Pitching' and the lecture at Gilbert on Wednesday night would be 'Pitching' and the lecture at Greenway on Wednesday night would be 'Pitching'.

Therefore, it would be of little value for you to attend more than one of these meetings in any one week. Also, you cannot get credit for attending more than one of these meetings in any one week.

However, you could, for example, attend the class at Greenway for week #1 and the class at St. Mary's for week #2 and the class at Dobson for week #3 etc.

You can also attend any of the classes for 3's, 4's & 5's in addition to or instead of the St. Mary's, Dobson, Gilbert and Greenway classes.
