I surly don't want some dumb dork (besides me) owning my house because he wanted to use a hot bat and got hurt doing so.

For your ASA umpire insurance to be effective, the tournament must be ASA sanctioned and all the teams ASA-registered.
If this is fact, you should be covered based on Rule 12. However, please note that you are only covered up to $5mm, so you may want to purchase supplimental insurance.
