The umpire difference in the GHVBL

The GHVBL is supported by the professionals at Elite Baseball Umpires Association (EBUA) and their team of partners & assignors throughout the league geography.  Under the EBUA leadership, the GHVBL covers your home games with professional, badged officials.  The EBUA is led by Gary Colorusso, Zach Novick, Tom Kienzle & Earl Berry – they are the best umpire organization in the area.  They take responsibility for your games – making sure you are supported with prompt, professional, poised umpires for your games.  Most importantly, Gary and his team take an active role in supporting our mission – sportsmanship, education, and development for their team outlined in our Code of Conduct.  They raise the bar every year. They are just one of the reasons the GHVBL is the preferred youth travel baseball league in the region….
