I started umpiring in Dixie Youth when I was 14. Our policy has changed since then and you have to be atleast 15 to call any game. The best training I got was jumping in both feet. I knew the rules fairly well at that age and each game I would regognize potential situation that could happen. When I got home I would either ask my dad or look it up in a book the Sporting News published: "The Knotty Problems of Baseball". That was my bible.

If anybody knows how to get a copy of that book please let me know.
