San Francisco Little League's umpire program is open to both youth and adults alike.  Youth & adult umpires are utilized in all of our kid pitch divisions.  

No prior experience is required, just a willingness to learn and enthusiasm for the game.  Umpires ages 15+ are required by the state of California and Little League International to complete background checks as per the requirements of the SFLL Child Protection Program. 

SFLL provides free training and ongoing support throughout the season.  Learn more about umpire training.  

Scheduling is flexible based on your availability.  Games are played at fields across the City and on Treasure Island on weeknights (usually 5:30P or 6:00P start times) and all day on weekends.

Youth ages 12-17 are eligible to be paid for umpiring after attending our mandatory training sessions.  Returning or otherwise demonstrably experienced umpires between the ages of 18 and 22 who are still students may also be eligible for our paid program.  Learn more about our Youth Umpire program.

SFLL has a zero-tolerance policy regarding disrespect and abuse of umpires.  Learn more about our Codes of Conduct.
