HEY TEENS.... Do you really like baseball?  Do you know the game?  Want to earn some extra cash?

GLL also offers Umpire positions to responsible, reliable teens who are knowledgeable & enthusiastic about the game!  You can be a GLL player  *and*  be a Junior Umpire at the same time, if you'd like.

No previous experience is required but we're looking for teens ages 14-18 who can keep a calm and rational demeanor at all times.

Spring and/or fall home games available at the Gettysburg Rec. Park for younger kids on weeknights and/or weekends.
