Simply collect uniforms at the end of the season, collecting/keeping track
of fund-raiser money from the players (when applicable), and maybe a few
other small tasks of this nature during the season. The purpose is to free
up the manager and couches to focus on instruction and centralize these
small "extra" duties with one person, which keeps it simple.
Yes No
(5) Would you be interested in umpiring some or all of
our home games this season? This would probably be a home plate umpire.
Yes No
(6) Would you be interested in umpiring some or all of
our away games this season? This would probably be a base umpire, rather
than behind home plate.
Yes No
Thank you for your time, support and for encouraging your child to
participate! Feel free to contact me at any time regarding any questions
or concerns you may have.
