Major League Baseball will host a free, one-day umpire camp at Coors Field, home of the Colorado Rockies, on Saturday, July 30th. Saturday’s umpire camp will mark the eighth to be held at a Major League ballpark, and the first since Detroit’s Comerica Park in June 2019.

This event is being held in cooperation with “Officiate Colorado Day,” which occurs the day before the start of the 2022 Sports Officiating Summit presented by the National Association of Sports Officials (NASO). Staff for the event will include many accomplished former MLB Umpires, current MLB Supervisors and Observers, as well as Minor League and NCAA Officials. Among those participating from the MLB Umpiring Department will be Cris Jones, Jeff Kellogg, Ed Rapuano, Charlie Reliford, Rich Rieker and Larry Young.

This is MLB’s fourth free, one-day umpire camp of 2022 for anyone interested in umpiring in baseball and softball, including those aiming to begin professional careers.
