I guess certain areas of the country are being harder hit.
I've been around the game here in south Mississippi for about 8 years at the rec league, travel ball, high school and now college levels. Traveled to Alabama, Louisiana and Florida panhandle also.
Besides Fed, we've played under ASA, Dixie, USFA, USSSA and probably a few I've forgotten.
I have never heard about any serious shortage of umpires for all the above.
I do see a lot of the same faces calling for several orgs. Is this the exception to what is done elsewhere?
I know a recent thread discussed problems crossing organizational lines but down here they seem to do OK.
