Baseball and Softball officials play an integral role in the integrity, sportsmanship and enjoyment of the game. If you are looking for an umpire organization to officiate your Baseball & Softball Leagues, you found one of the top organizations in Rhode Island. The Blackstone Valley Umpires Association.

​

If you have a love for baseball and are interested in becoming an umpire for baseball and/or softball, please click the "Contact Us" tab at the top of the page, fill out an email, and submit it to the director of Blackstone Valley Umpires Association.

​

We are always looking for new members to join our group, with or without experience. Knowledge of the game is very helpful. As a group, we strive to become better by attending clinics each week, during the off season, to work on fundamentals, professionalism, officiating mechanics, and rules interpretation. 

​

​

We are currently looking for aspiring umpires for the 2024 season. Fall ball is approaching, and would be a way for one to work on the skills needed for next season. We also hold winter clinics from January to the start of the season. These clinics have excellent topics in the profession of officiating baseball and softball.

​

​

These clinics will help new umpires gain experience and will help the seasoned/ veteran umpire to imporve with new mechanics.

 

 If you are interested in learning more and to see what's involved to working as an umpire, please call Tommy at 401.636.7826 or send an email to blackstonevalleyumpires@gmail.com for more information.
