No fast pitch for men in Georgia, but we do have Men's Modified. I'm not sure how many teams are still playing now since I haven't called it in a few years (another umpire association has exclusive contract). But, at one time Georgia fielded several teams in the National Men's A. I used to travel around Ga. and Tenn. calling Modified Tournaments, and had a lot of fun. Those guys don't whine nearly as much as the SP guys! I had fun because only 2 other females besides me were brave enough to call Modified, and we had 3 ISF umpires that worked with us all of the time. Believe me, I picked up a lot of good moves on my plate work from the ISF guys. I credit them with all the excellent ratings I achieved at JO FP Nationals on the Plate.
I wish there were Men's and Women's FP here so I could have an opportunity to umpire.
