I guess you could say 'BUMP' .. I'm sure there's more ref/ump/officials pictures out there.

He was feeling terrible...

But after a quick touch-up, he felt much better.

As a Hockey Ref, YES, And please do. We like photos of ourselves working.

That's what I figured. Might be helpful as a photog if the refs know you are friendly, they'll help you back.

Here's a few UMPS from the U-18 Minnesota Class C State Tourney held here over this past weekend...

This ump plays for Missouri Western, and is in the huge National tourney in Indiana starting Tuesday

This ump couldn't have been closer to the play!

This guy refs basketball in the area as well, but is a great softball 'mind' when it comes to discussing and knowing the game.. he's a a bit 'OOF' with the batter being the main target.

The ref taking a 'break' is the funny picture obviously.. at our football/soccer fields the opposing team would have to run all the way across the field for that sort of break... so they find some trees and lot of people can see them across the field! Who knows if the neighbors across the street can see.

Thanks my man. It's one of my favs from this weekend. It's taken with my 8mm Peleng. I was about an inch from his head and I could totally tell he was like: "Wtf are you doing?" lol.
