Think umpiring is just standing behind the plate? Think again.

Umpires are constantly on the move. From hustling up the baselines to getting into position for every close play, keeping up with the game takes focus, quick reactions, and more fitness than most people realize.

It's a role that keeps both your body and your mind active every inning.
