when i sit on the bucket in the dugout, the blue softball logo on the bucket has to face forward...

I put the opposing team's lineup sheet in my left shorts pocket, and hold it in my left hand when we are on defense, and my team's lineup in my right shorts pocket.

After each game I put all the old lineup sheets of the games in a side pocket of my backpack, and I don't throw them away until the end of the tournament.

my backpack and my other coach's backpack hang side by side in the dugout fence, with mine on the left.

and most important: I wash and wear the same underwear each day of a tournament...

I think what you meant to say Art was....."most importantly I wash my underwear"

Atomatic just turn them inside out after the first day and you can wear them for 2 days without washing....

Buying a tournament shirt before winning the tournament has always been bad luck for our team!

I just like to get to the tournament really early. Many times I'm the first umpire there. I like to chill out and walk around watching the players, get a feel for whats going on and who is there or just simply relax. Shine my shoes, set up my little abode.

My DD has to wear her uniform socks backward so the UA logo is on the back of her leg. She has one of the other pitchers doing it now too.

We won;t buy a tournament t-shirt until after we win either. Very bad luck
