💚 WHY I UMPIRE 💚

Everyone has their own reason for picking up a whistle.

For some, it’s a love of the game. 🏐
For others, it’s the challenge, the friendships, the personal growth, or the opportunity to give back to the sport we all love.

Umpiring is more than making calls. It’s about building confidence, learning resilience, making quick decisions under pressure, and being part of an incredible community.

👇 Finish this sentence in the comments:

“I umpire because…”

We can’t wait to read your answers 💚🏐

🏐 The Answer is In! 🏐

This situation from the broadcast certainly got people thinking. 👀

In real time, these decisions happen in a split second, and sometimes a replay can show us things we don’t always see on court.

🎥 Check out the video to see the decision and explanation behind the call.

Every situation is a great opportunity to learn, grow, and build our understanding of the game. 💚
