Did you watch any games last year that didn't have an "official" umpire?  Were you recruited in the parking lot to do the job?  Not enough time to manage or coach a team but want to do your part to help out?  Can't sit still during the games?  Always have lots of free "advice" for the folks who volunteer to officiate the games?

If you answered yes to any of these questions, we could really use your help.  Each year we have many more games than we have available "official" umpires.  That gives you a great opportunity to learn some more about the game and help out the whole program too. We urge you to consider umpiring this coming season 2009.  You can contact Dave Carstensen or Frank Enfinger our Co-Umpire-In-Chiefs at This e-mail address is being protected from spambots.
