Unfortunately, our league has some experience with this problem. I'm not coming from left field here.
Another parent in most any league is probably a stranger to most of the kids in the league. They're only familiar with the ones they see regularly. An umpire in uniform is much more likely to be trusted. Not as much as the kid's coach, but more than an unknown parent from another team - especially a team in a different grouping.
