Support My Dream to Become a Professional Umpire

Help Me Pursue My Dream of Becoming a Professional Baseball Umpire!

Hi everyone,

I’m reaching out with an exciting and heartfelt request. For as long as I can remember, baseball has been a passion of mine. The crack of the bat, the smell of the grass, and the thrill of the game have always been a part of who I am. Now, I’m taking a big step towards turning my passion into a profession.

I’m working towards becoming a professional baseball umpire—a role that not only requires a deep understanding of the game but also the commitment to rigorous training and certification. This is a dream I’ve held for years, and I’m finally ready to make it a reality.

To achieve this, I need to attend specialized umpire school, which provides the intensive training and certification required to officiate at higher levels of the game. The cost of this training, including tuition, travel, and equipment, is significant, and that's where I’m hoping you can help.

On August 24th, I hope to attend a MLB Umpire Camp at CHS Field, home of the Saint Paul Saints.

Here’s a breakdown of what the funds will be used for:

Tuition and Fees: The cost of attending the umpire school.

Travel Expenses: Flights, accommodation, and transportation to and from the training location.

Equipment: The necessary gear to properly perform the duties of an umpire.

Becoming a professional umpire is not just a career goal for me; it’s a chance to immerse myself in a game I love; and demonstrate that skill and passion for the game are not limited by gender. I’m committed to putting in the hard work and dedication needed to succeed, but I need your support to get there.

Thank you so much for considering supporting my journey. Whether you’re able to contribute or simply share this campaign with others, your support means everything to me.

Let’s make this dream a reality together!

Best,

Danielle Kosten
