Give a man a fish and he eats for a day.

Teach a man to fish and you lose your fishing monopoly!

Watch what your partners are doing. 3 man can become 2 man real quick so cover eachother's rear ends.

If you go out, go out hard and don't come back until the play is over.

Don't rotate unless the ball goes into the outfield.

DO NOT OVER-HUSTLE! Over-hustling can be fatal in the three ump system. If you don't know where you are going, check where your partners are (see above), stay ahead of the runner entering your area and don't leave an even number of umpires at any base.

If you are U1 rotating home, don't take the play until you are set.

Someone else gave you the rotations. I had to come up with something different.

So, three umpires at any base is okay?

You could contact the camp and ask for replacements.

I am not sure if this is even a serious post. How can it be answered? The CCA manual for MOST assoc. is probably the best advice. In the GBL we use a modified 3 man rotation that leaves the PU home MOST times, but that's a different clinic altogether. If you are truly asking about rotations AFTER attending, maybe you should wait and avoid 3 man until you can attend again.

A simple "get the CCA Manual" would have sufficed. No reason to be a jack*ss.

As far as your assoc. using this modified 3 man system ... that sounds like too much work. Just use the CCA mechanics. Why make things more difficult?

Actually it was super easy. For the plate guy, it was a very relaxing day behind the plate. The base umpires took care of just about everything. Minimal rotations, you just have to be flexable and alert when on the bases.

try to remember that if you are U1 you don't have to commit to home unless the R1 commits to 3rd.. if R1 stops or just rounds 2nd you dont have to commit to Home... that might help a little bit.

I believe the quote is,

"Give a man a fish and he'll eat for a day.
Teach him to fish and he'll sit in a boat all day and drink beer."

I don't need no stinkin' boat for that.
