PSA from the Mid Columbia Umpires Association: They needed to reschedule their first of the season meeting to February 10th at 6:00 PM at the Bargeway Pub. This is a new rules and association meeting. If you might be possibly interested in umpiring high school softball or baseball you are welcome to attend to get yourself informed. The MCUA is looking for new and experienced softball and baseball umpires for the 2025 high school season. The association is extremely short on Softball umpires. Women are highly encouraged to join.
Training is provided for new umpires. There is an assistance program to help with the purchase of gear for new officials. There is also an assistance program for the purchase of equipment for Military Veterans. Join up and help provide a valuable service to high school athletics while making some extra money in the process. The season starts on March 17th and runs through mid May.
