It does seem to add to the kids excitement level when a uniformed umpire shows up to "call" one of their games. They're really not needed as administrators of the rules. The coaches could do that just fine. It's the underlying message that makes the kids feel like they're playing "real" baseball, just like they see on TV, that drives the need to have young umpires work their games.
