Perhaps ASA is doing this intentionally to put their brand out there?

ISF is the one dropping the ball on this, it seems to me. If the tournament is sanctioned by ISF, it is their place to state requirements to the host, such as umpire uniforms.
No, ASA is the host, it is their responsibility. Just like those who do college and wear a conference hat. The conference school is the host, but the game is sanctioned and played under NCAA rules.
