Eric Field
UMPIRE DIRECTOR
Although he has only started his 6th year of umpiring, Eric has been affiliated with SMYB for 11 years from his previous time coaching. In addition to SMYB, he has umpired for Carlsbad, Escondido and La Costa Youth Baseball Leagues, District 31 Little League and High School baseball in North County.
In 2018 he developed a formal training program for the Youth Umpires and became Youth Umpire Coordinator in 2020 and by Fall of 2021, he was supervising both Adult and Youth Umpires.
With the league now back in full operation after the Covid shutdown, Eric realized he needed help running the program. He recruited fellow umpires Mike Heavner and Apar Mahajan to supervise the Adult and Youth umpires respectively and allow him to focus on coordinating and networking with surrounding leagues, recruiting, training and facilitating growth of the umpire program.
If you love baseball, are calm under pressure, have good decision-making skills, thrive in a team environment and want to contribute to your community then we want you! SMYB is seeking adult umpires to officiate games and help mentor our group of nearly 40 youth umpires! Experience preferred but not required, we will train you! Comes with competitive pay and flexible scheduling. Must be 18+.
