I was in charge of getting the umpires for our baseball league this year. I ran a little clinic with the help of a patched ump for the umps but nevertheless you always have a few coaches and parents who do not respect the ump unless he/she is certified. I was wondering how you can become a certified cal ripken umpire?
Keep in mind that most Certifications mean that an individual passed the Rules test and that's it. By passing a test and putting a patch on does not necessarily equate to being a good umpire, but leave it to coaches and parents to think that way.
