Steve...this is a VERY dangerous practice. I've been there, done that...and trust me, no matter how much you want to "give back" to the league, it isn't worth it! |
blueump: I'm always interested in horror stories for volunteer umps. Care to elaborate?
(Full Disclosure: I help organize an entire league with volunteer umps, and I myself have never worked a paid game. I'm open minded, but I'm really looking to eliminate problems in my current system, not to convert to a fee-based system.)
