All current and future CJL umpires please make room on your schedule for
upcoming Umpire clinics. Classes are at the beginning of the season and if you
take it and pass, you can be an umpire for the Cheyenne Junior League
Baseball League ($$$). Our league pays the best in Cheyenne for qualified
umpires. For more information please contact any BOARD members listed on this
site,
Ernesto Perez @ 773-3468 or
Chuck Finney
@ 773-2546. Here is the
umpire application if you want to fill it out.
We hope to see you there as it will benefit you financially and the kids
really need your help!
| 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 2012 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.
