the field as the team coming off the field. I was informed
this was not correct, that I should now be on the side
of the team going to the field. Anyone of you'ens know of a
change on this. He stated that it was because I would be
more out of the way.

Glen,
Don't know about Fed, but ASA has the PU always on the side of the team leaving the field. One reason, if not THE reason, is to have the umpire facing on-coming traffic. We don't need any incidents
from the rear between half innings, if you know what I mean.
