Statement of Professional Responsibility
The following is expected of all TCUA members:
1. Each TCUA member is expected to work their accepted game assignments.
Emergency situations do arise from time to time, but each member should minimize the potential for these situations. A member shall ensure they are available for the scheduled game prior to accepting it, and shall not return a TCUA scheduled game to work an assignment through another association. An official who misses an assignment will appear before the board to explain the absence.
2. Each TCUA member is expected to arrive on time for their assignments.
On time means at least 30 minutes to 1 hour prior to a scheduled game. A report shall be filed by ALL umpires on the assignment for any official arriving later than these guidelines or after the starting time for ANY game.
3. Each TCUA member is expected to have a professional appearance for all game assignments.
Members are expected to be dressed professionally when they arrive to the site for their scheduled game. Members are further expected to wear the TCUA uniform while working their games. Members shall also be appropriately groomed.
4. Each TCUA member is expected to interact with other umpires in a professional manner.
Don't complicate an already difficult job by making unflattering or unprofessional remarks to or about another TCUA member at any time. You are expected to resolve disagreements about rules and mechanics with your co-umpire(s) for that assignment and bring unresolved issues to the appropriate TCUA Board of Directors by via phone call or e-mail. Personal animosity, regardless of the circumstances, has no place in TCUA.
5. Each TCUA member is expected to interact with coaches, players, and all personnel in a professional manner.
Our responsibility to players, coaches and administrators is to conduct our business in a professional manner at all times. TCUA strongly prohibits the use of drugs and alcohol. If their behavior is less than professional, we shall enforce the conduct rules and, in required situations, make reports to the TCUA Board of Directors.
6. Each TCUA member is expected to deal with spectators in a professional manner.
Comments from spectators shall generally be ignored. While there is no need to refrain from exchanging pleasantries, the appropriate way to handle spectator problems is through the TCUA Board Members or the umpire-in-charge (UIC) of your facilities.
**Chronic offenders of any of these provisions will appear before the board to explain their behavior. In addition to the previously stated penalties, the board may, at their discretion, suspend the umpire or terminate the umpire altogether.
I hereby acknowledge that I have read the TCUA Statement of Professional Responsibility and for the consideration of being a member of TCUA; I agree to be bound by its terms.
