Daughter wants to umpire

[chuck chopper]

My Dad was an ump for 20 years when I became one. They threw me right into Mens fastpitch working with him. I did the bases first game, then plate 2nd game.
I recommend you find pre-season scrimmage games and you umpire it with her right behind you & following you as you move around the field. You cam also tell her what you are thinking about long before the pitch comes.
Do this for one full game, then let her ump the next game, and you follow her around the field telling her what to expect.
On game 3 you are behind the backstop and talking to her in between each play as needed. Do that for about 3-4 games. Then the next time she umps the whole game and you can talk to her while you are in the parking lot afterwards.
Finally..its not you that umps for free..its her !
Every evening when she gets home, she can tell you about her war stories and it will make you closer. It will be great.
