A message from the West Region Director

Congratulations Western Regional Baseball and Softball Umpires!

I am proud to welcome all of the volunteer umpires who have earned a spot in the 2018 Western Regional Baseball and Softball Tournaments.

I have witnessed your hard work and commitment to Little League firsthand. The

volunteer hours you have put in at your local leagues have had an incredible impact on our players and families. The role of an umpire goes beyond balls and strikes. You are a mentor, role model and leader within your league and community. Your hours of endless dedication have earned you the opportunity to represent us at this elite level.

To become a Regional umpire, it takes continued dedication and learning. As you know, this does not happen overnight. To achieve such an honor, an umpire must demonstrate above-average skills, adhere to the true principles of Little League Baseball and Softball and provide their officiating services on a voluntary basis.

Many of this year’s Regional umpires have worked many years for this opportunity. We hope your experience will yield lasting memories and you’ll continue to be great leaders and mentors for new umpires.

My sincere thanks and best wishes go out to each of you for your dedication and commitment to Little League Baseball and Softball.

Kind Regards, April Meehleder West Region Director

A message from the West Region Umpire In Chief

It is a great honor to introduce the 2018 Little League Western Region Regional and World Series Umpires for baseball and softball.

These men and women have reached the highest level for volunteer umpires. They have devoted countless hours of training both on and off the field, have worked countless games and have waited many years to reach the pinnacle of their

avocation. They have sacrificed time away from family and friends, missed special family events, holidays and family outings to help our young participants learn the life lessons we hope will make them all future leaders and positive role models in our society. The volunteer Little League Umpire is an essential part of the teaching process and is an important part of learning teamwork, sportsmanship, responsibility and rule enforcement. Each of these individuals covets the opportunity.

They are now members of a very special and close community; the fraternity, sorority, brotherhood and sisterhood of Regional and World Series Umpires. It is a select group and one all should be proud to have attained. Please congratulate them on their accomplishments.

As the Umpire in Chief of the Western Region my heart swells with pride knowing that they are members of the Western Region. Along with Doug Perret, the Assistant Umpire in Chief, we thank you for all you have done to make our program and our Region great. You are a credit to your local league, your District, Section, State and the Western Region. Those of you off to a World Series, work hard to continue to show the world why we believe the West is truly the best. To all umpires, enjoy the experience, relish the opportunity and make sure you share it with those closest to you and take a second to realize what you have accomplished.

Enjoy the ride, Mark Bernstein West Region Umpire-In-Chief

A message from the WRLLUAA President

On behalf of my fellow members of the Western Region Little League Umpire Alumni Association, I want to congratulate all of you who have been selected to umpire at a Western Region baseball or softball tournament in 2018. You join a long and distinguished list of volunteer umpires who have had the honor and privilege of being selected from among their peers to work one of these prestigious

post-season tournaments.

Your selection is a great honor for you, your family, and for your District and one you have worked hard to attain. The volunteer umpire is an integral member of the Little League program. This assignment takes you away from your family, friends, and work to positively help shape the lives of our youth. For that commitment and sacrifice, you should be highly commended.

I, along with each member of our Umpire Alumni Association thank you for your time and dedication. You are part of the closest and best fraternity in the world. Be proud of your achievements, they are well earned. Enjoy the games, the atmosphere, the camaraderie and have a great Tournament!!!

Thru generous donations and memberships since its inception in 2005, the Umpire Alumni Association has invested over one hundred thousand dollars into equipment, scholarships and facilities benefitting Little League volunteer umpires throughout the Western Region. Since that beginning, we have grown to over 300 members, both men and women, from all walks of life. What we have in common is a true dedication to the Little League program and the belief in its principles; Character – Courage – Loyalty.

If you have not already done so, please consider joining the Umpire Alumni Association (a public charitable 501(c)(3) tax exempt organization) and assisting us in continuing our efforts.

Sincerely, Brian D. Rounds President West Region Little League Umpire Alumni Association
