Question about Umpire Ethics.
I umpire for an organization that services three different high school leagues, consisting of 28 different high schools. For the most part each high school has 3 different levels: Frosh, JV and Varsity. This year my son will be playing Frosh ball for one of these high schools.
Here’s my question: Where should I draw the line on the games I umpire?
1. Obviously, I won’t umpire any games my son’s frosh team plays; and
2. I’m convinced I shouldn’t umpire other frosh games in the same league as my son’s team.
But can I do JV and Varsity games for my son’s school? What about JV and Varsity games not involving my son’s school but that are in my son’s school’s league? Any other restrictions that I should self-impose?
