Baseball Victoria is excited to launch the BV Green Vest Program as part of our umpire development pathway.
All summer clubs have received four brightly coloured green vests featuring Baseball Victoria Volunteer Umpire across the back. Beginner umpires at the club level should wear these vests to identify them as “in training” and help build greater understanding among players, parents, spectators and coaches.
We are looking forward to seeing these green vests in action and encourage clubs to tag us in photos on social media so we can share them.
As a reminder, all clubs are asked to step up to the plate and recommend at least three players or individuals for the BV Umpire Community Coach Program. We need to build our base and upskill current members to ensure a new generation of umpires can come through our pathway. Please submit your recommendations HERE.
