Be an Umpire

Play Ball!

 

OHYSA is committed to continuing the training of our players through our youth umpire program. Training is offered beginning at age 12 with youth umpires calling one-man games in 6U and 8U. As they get older our umpires move up to two-man crews, with young teens calling games in 10U, and older teens and adults calling games in 12U and 14U.

Umpire Login information changes each season, even for veteran officials, and umpires should wait for emails from the UICs with their User ID and password at the start of each season.

Umpires must be in the OHYSA database to be added to the playing season for assignments.

Attend available umpire clinics – Spring and Fall clinics will be announced via email and posted on the main page.  Contact [email protected] for more information.

Add yourself to the system – Umpires must be in the OHYSA database to be added to the playing season for assignments.

  • If you are a new umpire and have not played at OHYSA you will need to be added to the system and the umpire list.

Submit your background check – All umpires 18 and older are required to submit for a criminal background check prior to calling games at OHYSA.
