It may depend on if you know the leaders of the other association; I would tell a friend running another association that I was watching a game, and that I had feedback on the umpires, IF HE IS INTERESTED!! If I don't know him, then I wouldn't get involved, for the reasons stated above.

The other thing I might consider is to meander by the umpires after the game, and if possible, make some small talk. "Good game, wasn't it? You know, I do some umpiring myself; would you be interested in some feedback? It may be helpful to you, or, you can decide for yourself if anything I say has merit." Then, only give as much feedback as you think he/they are willing to listen to, based on the response and reaction.
