Many Leagues require that each participating team provide a certain number of qualified umpires.  You can now affiliate umpires with teams and keep track of how many games each affiliated umpire has officiated

The League Administrator and Umpire Coordinators can set the maximum number of affiliated Umpires per team. Go to Manage League > Modify League Umpire Settings. Umpire Coordinators can access this feature through League Umpire Settings.

If the league uses play level characteristics (see Play Characteristics) and selects the specific play levels it uses, these league officers can specify different maximum number of umpire affiliations based on a team's play level. If the league does not use play levels, or has not specified the levels it uses, then you can only specify a single maximum number for all teams.

Each Umpire can only be affiliated with a single team.  The people that can affiliate an umpire with a Team are the League Admin, the Umpire Coordinator, the Affiliated League Representative, and the Umpire. To affiliate an umpire to a team go to Umpires and then choose an umpire and click next to their name. Click on Edit Team Affiliation at the bottom of the form (if no team is listed there, then the umpire is unaffiliated).

Set the Team Filter to select the teams you wish to view. Now click next to the team you wish this umpire to be affiliated with. The team will now be displayed on the Edit Umpire form. Your choice for that umpire will now get a green highlight if you click on Edit Team Affiliation again, where you can change Team Affiliation or unaffiliate the umpire.

Affiliated Umpire Report

League Admins, Club Reps, Ref Coordinators, and League Presidents can run a report broken down by club showing, for each team, how many games each affiliated umpire has officiated at any point in the season.  This will give the clubs a tool to help manage their affiliated umpire program.  They can see how each team is doing, and make appropriate encouragements to get those umpires out there.  It also becomes the official record for the league at the end of season. Note that umpire assignments that have been flagged as No Shows do not count in this report.

To get to this report go to Affiliated Umpire Report.

Please note that if you import teams from past seasons, any umpire affiliations are also imported.
