It might be too late...........

to get these books, but by "Behind the Mask" and "On the Bases" by Carl Childress.

Read both books cover to cover and this will give you a great amount of knowledge before you ever step onto a field. This will give you many tips or cover things that will help you out tremedously.

You can by the books from Referee Magazine or NASO. You might be able to buy them on this website, but I am not sure about that.

Some of the things in the book are a bit outdated, but for the most part the information is great and applies to all kinds of aspects of umpiring from, what hand to hold your mask to what to do in an argument. Great start up books.

Peace
