Matt is a member of the Greater West Melbourne Little League Board of Directors and also enjoys Volunteering as a District 2 Umpire for Majors and Juniors Baseball and Softball.

Matt enjoys teaching kids the skills, rules, and strategies of the game, understanding that being successful in baseball is as much mental as it is physical.  Matt not only focuses on the “how” of the game, but also the “why” so that kids start to recognize opportunities for success in every situation.
