That is the indication I got. Why people cannot do adult baseball without being stigmatized for it is an enigma to me. Do what you enjoy. No point in working kiddieball if you hate doing it. Same goes for adult elite leagues.

To me, if you umpire baseball, you are a brother in blue. I don't care if you do Kiddie ball or HS or college or whatever. If you can do the job, you have my respect and support.

Another thing to keep in mind, is that it's not worth worrying about what level you do and what level is "better". If it's fun, then it's fun. Baseball Ontario has great level 4 (national) and 5 (international) umpires. But it also has many excellent level 3 umpires, and there's nothing wrong with that.

Strange

Higher Quality, what level of ball are you going to work 10/31, and where. You might want to give us some kind of idea of your credentials

It's that level of ball that's in a better state than yours, and at least one or two levels higher than whatever you're calling. So, he won't tell you what level until you state a level that he can one-up with his bu!!sh!t story.
