That may be something to consider next year!!!!!

And about a third of those stay with it through the season and into the next seasons. In my current group, more than half of my people were recruited in exactly that way.

Glad to

Are you ready to make new friends and to be somebody? Are you tired of the same dull 9-5 routine? Would you like to be involved in the world of big time sports? If you answered yes, then softball officiating is for you. You can be a professional umpire and enjoy privileges like travel to exotic places, being admired by your peers, being seen as a leader in your community, and making the kind of money that you deserve. Don’t let this opportunity slip away! Call your local association now and register. Make the call so you can make the calls!!
