Umpires

Call for Umpires

Coquitlam Little League (CLL) is getting ready for the 2024 Regular season, and we are calling for new or returning baseball players aged 11 years and up to be part of the third team on the field.
You can umpire games that suit your schedule and make some extra money.

Little League Umpire Registry

We encourage all new and returning umpires to sign up for the Little League Umpire Registry. It provides access to the latest on-line training and education materials from Little League University. It's free to sign up.

As an exclusive benefit to Umpire Registry members, a series of candid bi-weekly online discussions known as "Touching Base" are already rolling. Presented virtually via Zoom, Touching Base is hosted by Tom Rawlings, Little League International Director of Umpire Development, and features live conversations that will bring reality, perspective, and philosophy to the activity of umpiring in Little League.

To access these topics, you first need to visit LittleLeagueUmpire.org and become a member of the Umpire Registry.

Thank you again for the commitment of time and dedicated service you provide to our CLL community.

Umpiring is a great way for all ages to be involved with the game! There is a lot of flexibility and you even get paid. No experience is necessary. Stick with it, develop your skills and who knows, maybe you can end up umping a Canadian championship or even a World Series like our own Scott Barden, Mike Yamada and others!

For more information, please contact the CLL Umpire-In-Chief, Sergio Bertani (sergio@coquitlamlittleleague.ca).
