JUNIOR UMPIRE PROGRAM

HEY TEENS.... Do you really like baseball?  Do you know the game?  Want to earn some extra cash?

YCLL also offers Umpire positions to responsible, reliable teens who are knowledgeable & enthusiastic about the game!  You can be a YCLL player  *and*  be a Junior Umpire at the same time, if you'd like.

No previous experience is required but we're looking for teens ages 14-18 who can keep a calm and rational demeanor at all times.

Spring and/or fall home games available at the Allen Field for younger kids on weeknights and/or weekends.
