Make sure with the TD about the umpire room/area.
Stock it with lots of food. Lots of food.
Put on your running shoes.
Buy a backpack so you can carry more water to the umps on the field.
Practice drinking adult beverages and listening to war stories.
Last but not least, practice going without much sleep if you have a big tournament, less if it is a SP one because the players will be keeping everyone up at the hotel.
