The 2019 Special Olympics National Invitational Tournament is being held August 15-18, this year in Nashville, TN. Please note the April 30 response date if you would like to apply.
As in the past, the umpire is responsible for their own travel and no game fees are paid. The umpire will be housed by the Special Olympics and some meals are provided. The rewards come from working with these special athletes and the attitude they bring to the game. Umpires who have worked this tournament in the past are always interested in returning, but new umpires are welcome, particularly with local or state Special Olympic experience.
Applications will be reviewed for selection before the names of those umpires selected will go before the Special Olympics management for final review. Umpires will be notified directly if they are selected. All umpires must be USA Softball registered and cleared the background check. Completion of Safesport training is encouraged.
