So true! I travel around Europe for the ESF every summer and try to visit the Cup every time in the winter. Just to be together as umpires in a group, having fun, share the games together, helping each other getting a better umpire. It an extra for me. The games in competition are great, but then we work just together (2 umpire system) and see no one else...
