I like this system.

For consideration for post season, you are required to get at least 5 evaluation cards returned along with other critieria. (Passing the test, attending meetings)
I have often wondered about systems like this. How the heck does a coach know how to evaluate an umpire?? How many coaches know anything how mechanics that umpires use? To me, this sounds like a very flawed system from the get go. JMO, of course.
