That's a pretty simple directive.
I don't own one because I don't work Softball.

As far as baseball, my NCAA assignor frowns on carrying one while a BU.

Also, to make the statement that you need to be in better shape to work softball than baseball... I disagree. I know lots of SP umpires who work softball because they can no longer keep up on the big diamond, so that will never hold water with me...
