New Daily Challenge is live on UmpIQ!

Bottom of the 7th. Home team down 1. R1, one out. Big hit to right center.

You’ll work the two-umpire rotation first, then the defensive coach calls time!

Can you get the movement right and handle the situation?

Had a great time joining Joe Sweeney on As I See It: An Umpire Podcast to talk about UmpIQ!

We covered what I’m building with UmpIQ.com, why reps and game situations matter so much for umpire development, and how better preparation can help crews feel more confident on the field.

Really appreciate Joe having me on.

High school playoff season is here.

We just added 3 umpire mechanics scenarios to UmpIQ focused on the situations that tend to expose crews this time of year.

If you’re working games, it’s worth a few reps:
⚾ Rotations
⚾ Coverage
⚾ Positioning under pressure

Always open to feedback — what scenarios should we build next?

UmpIQ has a new Daily Challenge live.

Today’s rep: “Go Ahead Run?”
Bottom of the 7th. Two outs. R2 trying to score. Base hit to right. Then a fake-tag?

We’ve also got 4 Daily Challenges waiting in the archive now, so if you missed a day, you can still jump in and get your reps.

More daily situations are on the way, and we may have a podcast interview coming soon too.
