It also tricks umps who are not so good at English. Although I know the rules well, I have never been able to score above 75 on the FED test. I always get confused on the tricky language.
I recently moved and we are required to score 80 in order to umpire high school here. Since I got 73 on the test this year, I will have to sit out the season. This would be my fifth season umpiring in the states.
I have been reading this place for three months and it has helped my English. Maybe next year I will do better. My wife helped write this.
