How much are CABUA fees and why is there a fee?
CABUA membership renewal fee will be $110.00 commencing in the Spring of 2010. Umpires who take a 2010 Clinic will be charged $55.00 for membership renewal. This fee is deducted from the first game(s) of the season which you umpire. The fee is used to support costs the group has such as meetings, expenses etc. The fee may vary based upon attending a clinic each year. This fee also covers the cost of the two evaluations/supervisions you will receive each year. The evaluators have to be paid for the work and the rate is close to what they would get if they were doing a game. Taking a clinic is a good way to keep your skills up and to reduce the membership fee. More information can be obtained by downloading our members guide from the forms page. Game fee schedules are reviewed with each league from time to time such that Calgary baseball umpires are compensated appropriately in line with baseball umpires elsewhere in Alberta and with other amateur sport officials.
