Here in MD. we are having our final group meetings as the season starts in about 3 weeks. This 17 year old kid showed up yesterday wanting to know who he could have an "interview" with about umpiring. I guess he thought he had to pass some evaluation, or we wouldn't let him try to umpire. So now I have 3-4 weeks to take this kid from zero to some level good enough so he can do little kids slow pitch.
You know we don't turn anyone down, and that first year is a killer.
