I have been an IHSAA umpire for the last 5 years. Went through 2 certification clinics and have applied for the tournament series the last 4 years. It has been a long wait to get in. I have progressed each year in the coaches vote. Last year I finished 29 out of 80 applicants. The first year I applied it was worst than that 65 out of 79 applicants. But it also could change due to the number of umpires needed in a particular area of the state.
