Umpire Fees

RDMBA will make every effort to provide 2 umpires for each game as per Baseball Alberta’s minimum number of umpires required for league play.  RDMBA will try to make every effort to pair a lower experienced umpire with a higher level umpire.  If, for any reason an umpire is required to work a game alone, the umpire shall be paid 1.5 times the normal game fee.  If the umpire would like to recruit an uncertified volunteer to work bases only please ask coaches to assist in recruitment (eg. parent volunteer.)

RDMBA does not pay mileage for Rec/CABL division house league and for all other mileage regulations please see the Baseball Alberta handbook (pg. 53.)  

Please try to bring your own equipment including facemask, chest protector, shin guards and correct footwear (all available umpire gear RDMBA provides will be located in the lock-box located at each field - coaches should have keys to these if required.)  

If an umpire is cancelled 1 or more hours prior to game start no fees will be paid (eg. severe weather, last minute team forfeit.) In circumstances where the umpires working a game that has started but is subsequently suspended, cancelled or forfeited prior to the completion will be paid full game fee. 

For umpire fees see chart below. Additional information regarding incident reports, ejections, or game incidents etc. is available in the Baseball Alberta Handbook (pg. 51.)  Any questions or concerns should also be reported to the RDMBA umpire coordinator.  

It is the umpire's responsibility to inform the umpire coordinator of any changes in games assigned (ex. sickness and can not make the game.)  RDMBA umpire coordinator personal contact information is available with the schedule sent out.  umpire@reddeerminorbaseball.com
