Ahem,
"I was 11 years old when I called my first game on the bases. It was a 9-10 year old game and I knew every single player and coach."
. . . and therein lies the "internet" problem with umpires:
At 11 years old you were not umpiring. It doesn't count on your resume and, in my personal opinion, shouldn't even be considered as "umpiring."
We get guys all the time that say they have "14 years experience" and we find that they are 21 years old. Something doesn't fly.
This is one of the reasons that I "hold in contempt" small diamond umpires.
Regards,
