Umpire Information: Cheyenne Jr. League Baseball would like to invite any person who is interested in umpiring for us this upcoming season to attend an NBC rules and umpiring clinic at the CJL complex located at the corner of Converse and Dell Range. The 2008 clinic was a complete success, Chuck Finney of Cheyenne, Wyoming conducted the clinic. General baseball rules, specific CJL rules, and umpire positioning were covered.  The CJL board of directors believe the children of ages 7 – 12 that the umpires will be working with, look up to the umpires as role models who are serious about helping the community.  The season will begin in May, and finish around the beginning of July. Games start at 5:45 on weekdays and 9:00, 11:30, 2:00, and 4:30 on Saturdays, there may also be games on Friday at 5:45 for make-up or rainouts.  The only time there should be games on Sunday is for tournaments. We expect our umpires to be at the CJL complex 15 to 30 minutes before game time so we have no trouble starting on time.    Umpires this year will have their name and phone number on file with the umpire scheduler.  They will be contacted to umpire games by the scheduler 1-2 weeks in advance.  There are always instances where someone gets sick or has an emergency and can’t make it to the field.  You need to call the scheduler as soon as possible if you can’t make it or you may be called by the scheduler in the afternoon and asked to umpire that night for someone else.  This is a job and you need to treat it as such.  The more reliable you are the more you will be scheduled and the more money you will make this summer.   Certified umpires will receive up to $30.00 per game (depending on certification and experience), whereas non-certified umpires will only receive $20 per game. Games usually last between 1hr 45 min and 2hr 15min. You have the potential of making several thousand dollars in a season. Umpires are paid every two weeks. Checks can be picked up at the complex.  We ask that when you pick up your check, you have a list of the games and dates you umpired, so your check is correct or can be corrected at that time.  There is a dress code and it needs to be followed.  This year all certified umpires will be required to wear gray pants and navy blue umpires shirts with an official NBC umpire patch.  If you are not certified you will need to wear gray pants and a solid navy blue polo shirt. We look forward to seeing when the class is scheduled. If you have any questions, please contact us.   More Information
