I received this message from one of our "snowbird" umps recently:

"I don't believe in a one umpire system any way. In Florida they would never operate with a one man system."

I am now curious how rare one umpire systems are from various areas. Can any of you Florida guys confirm that there are no one ump systems in effect there?

In my assigning area, 5 out of 8 leagues are one ump systems. When we hit playoffs, all go to 2 ump systems.

Most of our local tournaments are 2 ump systems. Exceptions may be for 10U and/or some pool play games @ 12U & 14U.

Thanx.
