Training
Weekly 90-minute training sessions are designed to prepare you to begin the season on March 17. Training is focused on the two-man system and calling pitches. All games are worked by a two-man crew.
The Oregon Baseball Umpires Manual is provided by LCUA and illustrates every situation we teach. The NFHS rule book and case book is included with OSAA registration.
Attend a meeting and decide if umpiring is right for you.
In this example, the plate umpire (PU) trails the batter-runner (BR) up the first base line on a ground ball with nobody on base. The base umpire (U1) enters into fair territory to make the call at first base.
