<p>John D. Hall spent twenty-three years officiating softball and hockey primarily in northwest British Columbia. In this book he describes his journey with all the highs and lows associated with each sport; from achieving his goal of an umpiring berth at a National Championship in 1995 and his induction by Softball Canada into the Canadian Indicator Club in 2001; to his career as a hockey official and eventual falling-out with hockey altogether. He also tackles the subject of abuse of officials and offers advice to anyone thinking of becoming a sports official.</p>
