Hello Fellow Umpires- New member here :)

[jdforever]

Hello!

 

My name is Daniel, I am 22 years of age, and I just finished my 9th year of umpiring with East Nepean Little League. I have been umpiring since I was 14 years old, and my passion for umpiring just kept on growing and growing over the years. I can umpire every night of the spring and summer, and I would love every minute of it. Each year, I have averaged between 50-100 games that I will umpire. I will either get paid for the games, or I will choose to be a volunteer. A good chunk of the games I have umpired have been free games, and I will keep on volunteering. It isn't about the money. It is about the love of the game. I used to be a little league player, and, I immediately fell in love with the game through playing. Umpiring just made my passion grow.

I have joined this umpiring forum because I not only want to learn about umpiring and the rules, but, I also want to share my umpiring experiences with others, learn from the experiences of other umpires, make new friends, be a positive and inspiring umpire role-model for other members on this website, and to be here for someone when they need someone to talk to.
If you would like to know more about me, or you have any questions, please don't be afraid to contact me at any time. I will respond to you as soon as I can.

 

Thank you,

Daniel

I'm not at nowhere near the stature to post a welcome to a community that I haven't been a part of too long, but good to see another guy my age with the same passion for the game as me! You'll soon see that you will learn a ton here if you stay open-minded.
