I just joined the forum after reading many posts and finding them very useful. I have umpired Little League for a few years and last year, after managing Little League teams on all levels for 13 years in addition to calling a few, became Chief Umpire. I find the position fulfilling, great way to meet people and to stay engaged. All three of my teenage sons umpire in the league and we make a great four man crew for the big games. It is really fun calling games with your son(s). I look forward to meeting you all through posts and learning more about being an umpire. Thanks.
