Schedule is now OPEN!
Please keep in mind a few things as you begin your umpire career:
1. Any game that you sign up for, YOU are responsible for. Make sure that you can make the game that you scheduled yourself for. Failure to show up for any game, regardless of the circumstances, will cause you to be removed as a Junior Umpire for the entire season. Please call me or email me if there is an issue at least 4 hours before your scheduled game time.
2. You can only sign up for 5 games a week. That week runs from Saturday through Friday.
3. Level 1 umpires can only be the Home Plate umpire on Boys or Girls Coach Pitch games. All Level 2 and 3 umpires should sign up for the Base Umpire position. This will allow everyone the opportunity to get games.
4. Any games leftover by Wednesday will be offered to the Level 3 umpires and then the Level 2 umpires. This will be done throughout the season and will also be handled by the Junior Umpire Director.
5. It is recommended that you do NOT sign up for games that will involve a family member, relative of any sort, or a friend as this could cause conflicts.
6. Dont forget your umpire cards. They need to be filled out entirely and signed by yourself and both coaches. If you have any questions, please contact me. After you are finished for the day you MUST turn the cards in at the concession stand in order to be paid properly.
7. Umpires are ONLY entitled to water from the concession stand. Nothing more. Junior Umpires can have as much water as they need but Gatorade and Pepsi are not for the Junior Umpires unless it is paid for. Water is free for Junior Umpires at the concession stand.
I look forward to a great season and I wish all of you great success on the diamond!
Play Ball!
