Northeast Peanut League Umpires should present a clean, professional appearance which is neat, in uniform, properly equipped and prepared to go on time. Your appearance is many times judged by fans, players and coaches alike. Worn and faded garb, improper equipment, missing tools of the trade or arriving late can lead to a feeling from the coaches that you do not care about your performance and that you are there merely for the money. Whereas a properly attired and prepared umpire will likely gain more respect from fans, players and coaches.

Remember Promptness: If a game begins at 6:00 PM and you arrive at 5:59 PM YOU ARE LATE! Ground rules should have begun at 5:55 PM.
