In fact, many organizations will simply tell umpires to not even put CDP on their umpire resume b/c anybody can go.

I agree kiddies deserve good umpires.

The "clique" I hang with in my association are all doing high level HS, American Legion, and summertime college level ball. To go to CDP is a huge step down in quality and the kind of games we are accustomed to.

And just try to tell some of the idiot umpires at CDP they are wrong about a rule. I was truly amazed at the lack of professionalism and knowledge by some of the "Big Dogs" there.

Its because it is not much of an honor to be selected to work at CDP that anyone can go so putting it on your resume does not equate to your highest accomplishments
