We are also considering not forcing purchase of the 2009 Case Book either.

We will, of course, supply Rules and Case Books to all new umpires and anyone that wants to purchase them individually.

Tee if memory serves in a past thread you mentioned that your association was "pushing for" an elimination of umpires checking "bats / hats" before the game begins and put the onus on the managers.

If you can share what's the staus on this issue

Thanks
