Moving to Mississippi ... looking for contacts

[The Man in Blue 375]

I didn’t expect it, but my umpiring career in Illinois appears to be done for now.  I will be moving to Mississippi in a few months for a job/educational opportunity.

I’ll be in the Jackson, MS area.  Anybody out there have any words of advice on how Mississippi athletics work?  For example, Illinois sports in my area is very much “you are on your own” for finding games and getting your name out there.  We have local associations, but they do not get involved in scheduling (or much of anything).  Pay is set by individual schools.  I see on their website that the MHSAA has a designated pay scales (1/2 price for JV!?).
 

Looking for information and contacts in baseball, softball, and volleyball at multiple levels.

That will increase the average ability in both states. ;)
