Not around these parts, and it shouldn't be happening anywhere. DSI was sued a few years back where a kid got hurt where non-sanctioned umpires were being used. All DSI umpires are required to be sanctioned through DSI, or else the body that is promoting itself with the DSI name is running a major risk and carrying great legal liability everytime they allow a contest to go on without certified DSI umpires overseeing it.
