ASA does not have the luxury of only providing mechanics to "experienced" umpires like the SUIP does. ASA has chosen to teach a base set of mechanics and expect all of their umpires to follow them. This way, an experienced umpire can work with a newbie and they both follow the same set of mechanics. Do I think the CCA mechanics are better? Personally, yes. Do I think that ASA should allow for some flexibility in their prescribed mechanics when experienced umpires are working together (like at nationals)? Yes. However, in my experience at "national" tournaments, both ASA and others, I would not put some of those "experienced" on a local 10U rec game! So I can understand ASA's position of having one set of mechanics for all umpires. Maybe it will change someday. Until then, I'll follow ASA mechanics when working ASA games.
