This reminds me (on a tangent) of a middle of the road, backup soccer player in high school that quit and became a fencer (he was dating one I guess). Long story turned short, the kid picks up a fencing wand (stick, sword?
) and wins a state championship, individually, 2 months after just knowing how to put on equipment.
So baseball umpire : softball umpire :: soccer player : fencing player person
