Obviously, I am a small diamond umpire, but am willing to be educated at every opportunity.
Okay, here goes:

Anything other than solid color, cloth, minimum 10" length (but preferably 11-1/2"), navy or black, no zippers, no drawstrings, no elastic ball bags are considered "small diamond." Only pro-style ball pockets are considered "professional" looking. The others look like slow-pitch softball equipment.
