Hi guys, I am not an umpire but I love the podcast. My daughter played fast pitch softball in Dublin Ohio from the time she was 9 until she was 18 and graduated high school. I had often thought of going to an umpire school to better learn the rules. I coached her for 4 of those years and always wanted to learn more of the rules. Now that her playing career is over I am finding that I miss the game. Just going and watch another team play just doesn't scratch the itch. What are the steps to becoming an umpire. From this podcast I gathered that new umpires are thrown to the wolves so to speak. Do new umpires start out with an experienced umpire or do they start calling games by themselves?

keep up the awesome pod!!
