I've umpired a few friendlies for DD's travel team. The first time each team supplied an ump to call the game while "their" team was batting. After that one I became the designated friendly ump and have done a couple by myself since then. I enjoyed it but was calling from behind the pitcher, which is no fun.
I called one of our girls out on a back pick at third that was a close play. Our head coach was coaching third and gave me a look but didn't say a word. One of the dad's from our team actually got upset with me about it. It was someone I knew well but he started complaining and even said something when I left the field. Those sort of things don't bother me so it was not a big deal.
