Dealing with Umpires in Youth Baseball

Parents and Coaches,

This week I’m talking about umpires.

Umpires are just as much a part of baseball as are hitters and pitchers, but in almost every game I coach I see other parents and coaches interacting with umpires in ways that not only won’t help them get any future calls but also sets a bad example for their kids and players.

In this week’s episode, I talk about what makes a good umpire, my own experience with umpires (I’ve shown myself a time or two), how to interact with umpires, and how to talk to your kids and players about how to handle bad (or questionable) calls.

Enjoy the episode, and leave a comment with your feedback, questions, or your own experiences.

Thanks for listening - see you next time!

Kevin
