compliment during the game...

[RLG]

There are differences in coaches. I do about 75% HS and 25% small college ball. We have some HS coaches in our area that do not complain at all if they know you are hustling to get into position and not calling just for the money. My wife played D1 college softball, played in 2 CWS and is an excellent coach and also is an excellent umpire that I have called alot with. She notices hard work by umpires and calls the assignment sec. and compliments their hard work all the time. She also knows when she does not have a very tough game and she knows she will get new or inexperienced umpires and she is very patient with them as long as they hustle and try. All coaches are not as bad as some make them out to be, but be lazy and they should get on our butts.
