“I cannot express enough how valuable the PMCU training program has been for me. As someone who has always been passionate about sports, I wanted to contribute to the game in a meaningful way, and becoming an umpire seemed like the perfect opportunity.
“I felt like my advancement in the college game was at a stand still until I found PMCU. The training and mentorship from some of the best trainers in the game took me to the Division 1 level and Division 2 Postseason.
“What stood out the most was the emphasis on fairness, integrity, and professionalism. The program not only prepared me for the technical aspects of umpiring but also instilled the values that make a great umpire. I feel much more confident in handling challenging situations and maintaining control on the field.
“The training didn’t end in the classroom. The program offered opportunities to officiate at various levels, providing invaluable real-world experience. I was able to receive constructive feedback and continued mentorship, which further improved my skills.”
