Congratulations! Have fun and enjoy yourself. If this is your first, make sure you observe what the UIC tells the other umpires, not just what s/he may say to you.
I would expect the level of play to be the equivilant of good 16U ball. These girls will probably play good ball, but not great ball. College scouts should be at a minimum which is a good thing. That means more resources for the teams and umpires.
