Mission Statement

Our Mission is to provide quality officiating to our schools and leagues by conducting umpire instruction classes and mentoring of new members through continuing and ongoing rules interpretation sessions. Our Association works to build and foster development of qualified new umpires while helping veteran members remain updated in rules knowledge, game management technique and skills that help them maintain confidence in their officiating.

The Eastern Cuyahoga County Umpires Association has the overall focus of promoting umpire professionalism. We work to achieve this by providing training to improve officiating skills.

Our Goal is to provide an environment wherein our members can learn to interpret and apply the rules of baseball and softball and learn the field mechanics of being a qualified umpire. Our Association through its elected Board, passes and enforces bylaws to ensure its membership will benefit from the Association in an orderly manner.
