I am a relatively new umpire. I have done mostly town league games to this point. I just got my certification to do 1/4 pint (9-11) and 1/2 pint (12+13). Better kids, more pressure, etc.
My question is this:
What do you guys suggest I do to make myself the best umpire I can be? I have read the rule book numerous times, so I know the rules. Are there any mechanics I should learn? I know the 2 man and 3 man field mechanics,etc, but I mean plate stance, position to make call, etc. I have been umpiring for 3 years for town league, but I am still unsure of my abilities.
Any advice you guys could give would be great!
Thanks,
Chad
