For the life of me I cannot comprehend having umpires for T-Ball. For a League to take themselves that seriously is, IMO, just asking for trouble.
Half the kids just got out of kindergarten! Around here they are all butterfly chasers! The coaches are on the field running around trying to keep the game going and making all the calls. The whole teams bats, and when they are done they come in and the next team bats. When the batter runs to 3B everyone laughs and the coach simple picks the little type up and carries him over to 1B.
50% to 60% of those kids will never play at the 8 - 9 - 10 level; it's nothing more than a playground activity that should be all fun! (And the adults should consider themselves playground supervisors - not coaches.)
