Height is one of those things you have no control over. You have to compensate for it by having a strong knowledge of the rules, a clean and neat uniform and most importantly, a firm (not overbearing) field presence.

At 5'9" I'm not very tall but I feel I carry myself well that it is not much of a problem. It made me laugh today, I was working a JV Football scrimmage at umpire, and I realized that every single defensive player for one team was taller than I was. In my eyes you can either complain about it or actively work to improve in the areas you can.
