Baseball Ontario does not have any age restrictions however, there is a known error in the system that we are working with the developer to resolve.

For the short term:

• please enter the umpire’s proper month and day of birth,

• Select 1924 as the birth year (which is the last year in the drop-down list).

• That will allow their profile to be created.

• We will send an email to the address associated with the account when the capability to enter the correct birth year is enabled. Thanks for your patience as we transition to our new systems.

Umpires are required to certify annually in order to umpire with their local association.

Baseball Ontario is no longer providing umpire cards and card numbers. You will no longer need to provide this to your Local Association.

There will be a certificate that you will download from On-Deck... this will be made available towards the end of the clinic season.

We will be sending out a communication through On-Deck when the certification download is ready.

Certified Umpires:

Just like in the past we will publish a list of certified umpires The list is available now on our website, and will be updated regularly at https://www.playoba.ca/2023-active-umpires-list

This is addressed in question 1 in this section.

Certification across Ontario is equivalent and will satisfy the requirements needed to complete the in-person session of the Umpire training.

You can take any umpire camp that Baseball Ontario offers that best works for you.

For your umpire Camp / Super Camp please bring the following items:

• Hat

• Umpire Mask

• Indicator

• Baseball Glove

• Indoor Shoes

• Water

• Smartphone and or tablet if available (this is not mandatory)

Safe Sport Module through the CAC is required only once.

That said, it is an annual requirement to confirm your completion.

If you have completed this course through your locker, simply click on the "safe sport module through CAC" link in your certification tab (On-Deck) and provide your NCCP number.
