Make sure you understand the pitch height rule for the league (ASA -12ft max, 6 ft min), pitch count to start the at bat (sometimes 1 and 1). Be consistant on your ball /strike calls....After the ball is hit, move out from behind the plate and get a good position to make the call, after hesitating to mentally "see" the play. Most mistakes occur by calling safe/out too fast.
Anticipate where throws will go and hustle to a good angle position. Hopefully you know the rules for slowpitch. "Sell" the close calls w/ authority. Have fun. Most womens SP games play at a slower pace, so you should have time to make the right calls.
The biggest conflicts you will face are ball/strike calls, and close safe/out calls. Outside of any rules you may not be sure of, you should do ok.....
