My guess is that you're not alone in this. So, talk to a few people you trust and see if you can get a few people together once a week or so for several weks before the season to "talk umpiring." Prepare a very informal agenda at first -- bill, you talk about pitching rules. Joe, you discuss obstruction and interference. I'll talk about mechanics in week 3. ...
Since the word "association" has different connotations in different areas, you might not (or you might) want to use that word.
