Umping?
I would totally recommend you giving it a try. Even if you don't stick with it, it will give you a greater appreciation of the game AND other umpires, especially when you're the player!

One Official
I'm a new official this year, and have not had the "pleasure" of working a game by myself, although it will happen sooner or later.
My question is this, how do you do it? Do you stay pretty much...

Practicing
I've been told to practice in front of a mirror, but haven't been able to get past that "Boy do I feel silly" stage! Suppose I should just get over it and do it! Thanks for the tips.

Game results
The games went well. I was a little shy with the whistle, probably because I read in one of these message posts that new officials tend to be "whistle-happy". I didn't want to be that. But after...
