Umpires

The JSL Umpire Coordinator for the 2025 season is Bob Hanzlicek – any/all questions should be directed to him at jslumpires@jrsaltdogs.com.

2025 Season

Umpires are now being hired for the 2025 season.  To apply, complete and submit the 2025 application form.  Umpires must have internet access as all games will be self-assigned using Arbitersports.com on a first come, first serve basis.  Umpire candidates must be at least 14 yrs old by May 1, 2025.  Experience is not required; however, a basic understanding of baseball and the rules is necessary.

Reference materials for umpires
