Okay, been hearing lots of grumbling about umps now that summer season is about halfway over...so, my first question is, who makes the decision on what umpires work your tournament (I guess this one goes to the TD's)? are they derived from a pool of random people, are they assigned by the TD based on an ongiong reputation? (i hear alot of--"they should be retired" ramblings...is this because they ARE retired but thier name is still on the list? or just old?)
are school ball umps called in for games from the AD, or the junior high/high school coach
is there an evaluation done after the school ball game/after a travel game?
instead of random sour grapes, what can be done? grin and bear it?
then, shouldn't ASA umps be the best on the scale of sanctioning bodies? as for me, PONY umps were by far the worst I've seen, NSA has been the best this year, although we have played only one PONY tourney and about 4 NSA ones, so it's not really scientific
