July has arrived and that means preparing for a new NCOA Fiscal Year. 2011 will be here soon, September that is, and that means time for new Independent Contractor Agreement and a new basketball season.

Quality and Professionalism |
We want to thank everyone for doing a Professional and Quality job for NCOA during Fiscal Year 2010. Although players, coaches and fans expect perfection from you, we know that is only a dream. All we expect from NCOA Officials and Umpires is to act professional in appearance and demeanor and then doing a quality job by working smart, caring about what they are doing and putting forth effort in the endeavor at hand.
By continually doing a quality and professional job for NCOA we will be able to gain new organizations to which we can provide officials and/or umpires too. Thus meaning more assignments to you. NCOA's policy is not to seek out and steal contracts from other associations, rather have them come to us because of the quality of our officials and umpires. It is also NCOA's policy that any NCOA member steals or actively seeks to steal a contract away from NCOA they will no longer be assigned to any NCOA assignments. |

Bat/Ball Season![]() |
Summer baseball season for NCOA, except for a few assignments left, is comig to an end. We want to thank all those summer baseball umpires for doing a solid job. We received several compliments about the quality of work done for the 13-14's and 15-16's Senior League progames that we provided umpires to. The D35 Little League Umpire Representative stated that more organizations may be looking to use NCOA umpires next season. Summer softball season is still going on. Keep up the good work. |
