First of all I would like to thank everyone for there great comments. I have most of them and your input and opinions are very insightful.
My first question on this forum is one of a new umpire. I have been umpiring now for two years and have begun to receive Varsity game assignments and the invite to start an intro to Collegiate ball in the Southland Conference.
Awareness? I like this idea. I never realized what it was but I am well aware of the impact during games. History and tradition play a big part of baseball here in Texas and most of the coaches stay for long periods of time. I am looking for game management ideas that might help a young umpire become more efficient in keeping up with those all important details.
Reading references?
Use of lineup cards?
Anything will be of value.
Thanks again for any responses and I will be reading on.
