I think someone needs to scale down the center graphic a bit. It takes about 20 seconds to load.

I'll be happy to do that for you. My work gives me (legit) PhotoShop.

That took awhile to load for me, too.

And there was another weird glitch. When I started looking through the different pages, the "Suffix County ASA Umpire Association" stuff disappeared! What was coming up appeared to be the blank "template" pages used to build the site, before it was modified with any of your information.

So, there might be some bugs in what ASA is hosting. But thanks for pointing out that they will host a web page. I didn't know that and will pass it along in case our local association can be talked into using it!

It is not ASA. This has been around a few years now. It is ClubSpaces which hooked up with ASA a few years back and is marketed toward the teams. I think they announced it at the convention in Louisville, but not really sure. The initial, bare minimum site set-up is free. However, if you want it for something more than just posting data and links, there are fees for the service.

I had asked at one of the umpire committee meetings if the officiating side of the ASA house could inquire as to something similar, but modified toward umpire organizations be offered. Lot of blank stares....you would have thought I ask why rounding 1B was an appeal play I believe someone on KR's staff had to explain my request that if ASA was willing to offer this to the teams, why couldn't they offer it to their internal customer.

Don't get me wrong. I know ASA's IT dept. is struggling to keep their head above water right now as they will be swamped over the next four months with registration work.
