Hello all, 1st time poster, 1st yr umpire.
I just finished my 1st week (6 games) and have to say "Hallejuja!!!" I simply loved it!
I must admit I'm very lucky. The Northern California Umpires Association runs the San Francisco ASA Clinic and even has a scrimmage for us the final day. I also had the added luxury of having a long time family friend work the 1st week with me. Helped a ton to have a good buddy with already established chemisty.
So I guess it really does boil down to 'area' or location as has been stated already in this thread.
Hope I didn't over state myself. Can't wait to see what I can learn from this forum. Glad I stumbled onto it tonight.
Al.
