BEHIND THE MASK IS BACK!

Your weekly mid-week recharge. Your umpire clubhouse. Your chance to level up.

Starting Wednesday, December 3rd at 7:00pm, we’re firing up Behind the Mask — a weekly Zoom gathering built by umpires, for umpires. Whether you’re brand new, a seasoned vet, or somewhere in between, this is where we sharpen the craft, swap stories, break down situations, and get a little better every week.

Every Wednesday

7:00pm – 8:00pm

Live on Zoom

Bring your questions. Bring your rulebook. Bring your sense of humor.

Let’s talk mechanics, game management, rules, weird plays you saw last weekend, and all the things only umpires truly understand.

No cost. No sign-up. Just show up, learn, and hang out with your crew.

Let’s build the strongest umpire community in the PNW and beyond.

See you Wednesday night — Behind the Mask!

12/3/25 Interference & Obstruction — one of the most misunderstood parts of the rulebook. We’ll break it down, talk situations, fix the myths, and make sure you’re confident the next time it happens on the field. Use password: tq1XZ*Kp
