So anyways I did some quick math in muh head (smoke was pouring out) locally they hold two meetings one in sulphur one in lafayette, and if all the umpire from both genres and all the coaches from both show up in a high school cafeteria, I estimated it around 400 people per meeting... WTF? NFW. So if anyone has any info? I guess I could call the state and verify (but dammnit it aint muh job )

Come on NCB, "locally they hold two meetings one in Sulphur, one in Lafayette."

Where is anything local about that?

CNB if you would go to the LHSAA web site you would see that there are 9 rules clinics. Matter of fact there are 3 in your area. This is not new its been mandatory for our area since I have been calling softball.

first year I hear its mandatory to call "any" games in LHSAA.... we usually only have had 4 or 5 from our association attend and all the other guys have been allowed to officiate.

and only 2 (the ones i mention) do i consider in my area.... wish i had a better/faster car
