Bob Copus is and AOA and UMPS guy. He was the President before Dave. I was the Vice-President when Bob was at that position. Bob recieved a Class AA State Finals. Bob Jenkins is an AOA, FVB and UMPS guy. He has done multiple Sectionals and is a moderator here. Bob J. is currently our Vice President. Tim Kiefer who is the webmaster of the AOA and IACAO and worked with me at the JUCO All-Star game (in the middle of the picture) and is an AOA and UMPS member. He recieved his first playoff game this year as well. And finally Dave Alstadt is a IHSA Baseball Clinician and a D1 Umpire. And the AOA is one of the few organizations that do not assign anything league and we like it that way. We just want to teach and anyone is welcome to join. So being a member of more than one organization is rather common.
Find a group you like, and pay the dues. It really is not that difficult to figure out.
Peace
