Our Association has no say over this. You are hired and fired by crews. The crew decides where you work or where you do not work. And our state determines who gets playoff games or not. I was assigned a playoff game last year for the first time in my career and they put me at umpire. I have never umpired in a varsity game a day in my life until that game. But the state gives the crew the opportunity to put anyone in a position they feel most confrontable.

So if you are asked to join a crew, they put you where there is a need or where they feel your talents would be most useful. The crew I am on now, I was the Back Judge for two years. Because we had issues with our Referee at the time, he was released and I was moved to Referee because I felt most confrontable doing it. That was a decision made by the crew, not by any association I belong to.

Peace

WOW!!!!!!! We have crews, but all the chiefs are the varsity R's and they cannot fire us(they can recommend us off thier crew the the assc guru) Mine would never do that, he is JV baseball skipper for very good program and also PONY division director(I work a ton of his games) We have 7 on our crew, get 1 or 2 3 game sets each weekend and work out positions each game......fastest are on wings.....fatest in the middle.....or our old guys, they can't keep up on the wings
