Understand the Pecking order

Hey thanks for the quick responses.

I do understand the pecking order and the need to work the lower levels before varsity games are assigned and I have no problem with that at all. I worked the high school game due to the field umpire not showing (said he was unaware of assignment) & I was thrust into duty out of default and both coaches agreeing (I was only there to watch the game and observe the veteran umpires). After the game both coaches and the plate umpire (my assigner in Westchester County NY) said I did an excellent job. I have also done some modified (8th/9th grade) baseball games.

This is a very nice site also. I've gotten a lot of insight in the various situations that occur during the course of a game...
