G. ASA registered umpires may not reject championship tournament game assignments that have been assigned and accepted, to work invitational tournaments, or other organization's events. Violation of this rule will result in a minimum suspension of one (1) year.
1. STL ASA registered umpires who work other organization's events (except allied organizations) are to be placed last on selection lists for ASA/STL ASA championship competition assignmnents.
2. STL ASA umpires are encouraged to work events for all ASA and STL ASA allied member organizations when it does not conflict with our championship tournament program. The policy of umpires accepting jobs with other organizations, or invitational tournaments, will be the same as ASA National Policy on umpire assignmnent; which is, that such assignments must be cleared through the Metro Umpire-in-Chielf, or Metro Commissioner. Violation of this rule will result in a minimum suspension of one (1) year.
The rationale for the previous policies is that we provide our umpires with playing rules, rule books, manuals, clinics, and schools, in order for them to become more proficient in their profession. We do not want our umpires to be confused with different playing rules from different organizations.
