Why become an umpire?

  1. Improve your knowledge of baseball and apply it to your game.
  2. Build meaningful relationships than can expand throughout the province and even Canada.
  3. Make your own schedule!
  4. Being a official can look great on a resume.
  5. Develop skills that are transferable to sport, work and play.
  6. Give back to baseball in a meaningful way.
  7. Opportunities to travel – stick with it and you could experience amazing opportunities throughout Saskatchewan & Canada!
  8. Finally, and perhaps the most obvious – you can make a quick buck while having the “best seat” in the game.

Louis Slotsve Baseball Umpire Mentorship Program:

The Louis Slotsve Umpire Mentorship Program is meant to serve our newest and youngest umpires within Zone 6 to assist and support them in their development as they mature and grow. Through this program, mentors are able to be on location and assigned to individual umpires, allowing instantaneous feedback, support and intervention with spectator behavior if needed. The Mentorship Program allows new umpires to build upon their knowledge and improve at an exceptional rate in comparison to those who may not receive any support, creating confident, safe and knowledgeable officials who are inspired to continue their baseball journey are the essential goals of this program. To support the program, please contact an SDBUA executive or Aaron Szejvolt via email, Facebook, text or phone (306-260-6432).
