Umpire Center is an online umpire assignment service with one purpose: to make
umpire assignment as easy and hassle free as possible to all parties involved.
Umpire Center offers the tools for administrators to automate and verify the entire
assignment process and for umpires to manage their game preferences and
schedules. The end result is that game officials are appointed to appropriate
games consistently, fairly, and reliably.
The Umpire Center system uses this website (www.umpirecenter.com) as an access point.
Game officials and administrators (the users) access the service through a user
login, which brings them to their respective account pages. This is where they
access their Umpire Center tools and features.
At the heart of the system is a database that drives both the administrator and
umpire tools. Data is shared between both user types via this database; so
when information is updated by one user, the result is immediately reflected in
the other user's view. For example, as soon as an umpire accepts a game
assignment offering, the administrator will immediately see this change.
