Umpires

Woodlawn Little League Umpires
Woodlawn is always in need of volunteers willing to officiate our AAA, Majors, Juniors and Seniors division games. As you can imagine, we can have over a dozen games across all these division levels each week and we need umpires for each one.

Online Resources for Umpires can be found at the Little League Umpire Site, the Little League University online training site and Umpires can register with the Little League Umpire Registry to access all the tools available for officials.

Adult Umpires
Our adult volunteer umpires officiate games at all levels of play, but for safety we have experienced adults officiating our older divisions of play.

Junior Umpires
Woodlawn is pleased to have a Junior Umpire program where any player league age 12 or older can undertake training offered by the league to learn how to officiate games and to call games starting at the AAA level and working their way up with experience. Adult umpires frequently join the Junior Umpires on the field to help mentor and instruct our younger officials to ensure they know the rules, the mechanics of umpiring and how to effectively officiate games.

Our Junior Umpires are compensated for their participation, so young baseball enthusiasts can learn the game even more deeply and make some extra money.

Training and Equipment
Little League International hosts several online training sessions, since we cannot convene in person, to provide background and training information to current and prospective umpires. These sessions are convened at the start of each Spring season where interested adults and junior umpires can learn the mechanics of officiating baseball games. Woodlawn Little League also hosts on-field training sessions, as needed, to instruct and familiarize junior umpires or new adult umpires with the mechanics of officiating.

Woodlawn will provide each umpire with a polo style umpire jersey designating the umpire as an official of Woodlawn Little League. For those who commit to officiating a minimum of 6 games, Woodlawn will also provide a starter set of umpire's protective equipment for your use.
