Thanks, Pete.
Yes, I will be doing a lot of evaluating and mentoring this year. I also worked on our state's FED clinic and I am serve as the rules liason with the coaches.
As president of our association, I stay as far away from assigning as I can. We have restructured the association to stay in compliance with Washingstate and IRS regs and expectations to assist the umpires in maintaining an honest and defendable independent contractor relationship.
The assignor is now separate from the association and is also an independent contractor. Our primary control is that of hiring and firing.
