My association works 21 different leagues, and many have no idea that umpires get thirsty. I think they would probably tell our assignor/president to take a hike. That leaves us with option C, bring our own. If I know a league that likes to charge for their drinks, and not provide hydration for the umpires, I bring my own. Some leagues, though, are great, and 4 or 5 people will ask you every half inning if you need something to drink. We could all use leagues like those!
