You are very wrong to assume that. I see guys in their 60's working Freshman B games.
Gotta agree here.

Very easy to be a big boy umpire, anyone can do it.. hell even I do it... when I'm not busy with a fast n furious game like girlie softball. But $$$ talks and BS like game speed and fun of the game walks. Travel League OBR little ball pays the best, more than Fed Varsity in many cases.. so gotta go with that over most games if possible, including softball. Unbelievable how much is paid for each game. I made more on a double header 14U OBR than I would in 4 rec league softball games.
