The Northern Virginia Softball Umpires Association (NVSUA) provides umpires for softball. We provide umpires for high school, youth, and adult softball. All members are independent contractors. We are always recruiting new members who are interested in connecting with the great sport of softball and to work with the youth in the area. NVSUA is based in Fairfax County Virginia and has been in existence for more than 40 years. Most of our contracts are in Fairfax County but we also travel throughout the Northern Virginia, Maryland, and DC area.
