Official Reviews
Yumiel N. Montréal, QC |
Incredible! No more problems of fighting with the wind or trying to write on unstable things. Definitely the most convenient tool I've bought this year.
Dj N. Osawatomie, KS |
Works great for baseball.
Shawn B. Alpena, MI |
Magnets are good and strong. Easy to use. Get a flat pencil to clip in this.
Kirk S. Eloy, AZ |
Works great for softball and baseball. Fits well in front shirt pocket and stiff backing allows for easy place to write.
Brett W. Oxford, AL |
Strong magnets hold everything securely and fits nicely in my shirt pocket. Plenty of room in the spine for a pen (I use a Zebra F-301 and it fits perfectly).
Lane G. Norfolk, NE |
Was Looking for a lineup card with no label with strong magnets to hold lineup cards. I like the size as it can fit in the back of my softball pants when on the bases. Great product.
William V. Pine Bluff, AR |
Great slim wallet, for football, softball & baseball.
Robert W. Yates City, IL |
Very nice line-up holder. The magnets are very strong and can hold cards folded a few times. The only thing I would like to see is a couple of different sizes so I could size down to fit in my ball bag holding pouch.
Edward F. San Jose, CA |
Nice stylish book. The magnets do a good job holding my game card + various notes.
Kyle H. Fort Collins, CO |
I won't use any other type of roster wallet after using it!
Jesse R. Havelock, NC |
Exactly what I needed and exactly what the game calls for!
Pablo M. Gardena, CA |
Strong magnets. Holds line-up cards well.
Michael K. York, PA |
I originally had the 5” UmpLife line-up card holder which I loved. The durability and easy access are two features that made me want to purchase another one. However, Ump-Attire did not have this brand in stock so I went with the Referee brand. I am now finding that the binding at the top of the holder is separating where I put my pen. Therefore, the reason for my poor review. I highly recommend the UmpLife brand for your line-up card holders.
Bradley S. Wantagh, NY |
Very well made! I wish there was a pocket on the outside for extra sheets/cards if you’re doing multiple games but overall very durable and works as intended. Also would be cool if it came in other colors (blue, gray, red). Great product, will be buying again!
Chad W. Paw Paw, MI |
Great card holder. Magnets are a great touch.
Melanie C. Toms River, NJ |
It’s a very nice Card Holder, and I love the magnets inside. However, it is not big enough, in my opinion.
Kevin H. Hot Springs, AR |
The absolute best lineup holder I have ever used. I've been calling for 27 years and have had many different styles and this one is the best. The magnet clips hold any size of lineup sheets from different coaches. As you know, they all give you a different shaped lineup card all the time. I will never use anything else!
Stephen D. Indiana |
Best lineup holder on the market, without question. Quality magnets make this a must have. Was a little worried about the price initially, but it is well worth the investment.
Chris U. Stockton, CA |
The absolute best lineup holder I have ever used. I have been buying UMPLIFE products from Ray from day one when he started to produce umpire products, and he has never disappointed!!!
Zach K. Minneapolis, MN |
This UMPLIFE Card Holder is easy to use with lineup cards. A must-buy for every umpire.
Kelly M. Wahpeton, ND |
I prefer the 5” wallet style lineup card holder vs. the taller 6” model; but, the 6” one will hold those longer lineup cards more easily. Regardless which size one chooses, they are the best. The magnetic system is awesome and helps me do a better job keeping my lineup cards more organized. Highly recommended!
Rick C. Unionville, MO |
Delivered quickly in an envelope package. Slick little book that fits in a standard shirt pocket. Fits my scorecards I make myself. You have to fold up one of those tiny pencils in the center of it because it’s too bulky to use with a pen. I just had a game in about 10 degrees, and it worked fine where those plastic books you get with “kits”, the plastic freezes hard as a rock and is annoying to use. I don’t like how expensive it is but I’m sure I’ll use it for years.
Kevin R. West Kelowna, BC |
This has been the greatest addition to my gear by keeping the pencil and card firmly in my pocket. Adding the NFHS signals and penalty yards in there has been great for reference since we officiate both Canadian and American rules up here!
Jadarrius H. Horn Lake, MS |
This product is great and compact for holding my cards. It also stays in my shirt pocket when I run.
Mark W. Brooker, FL |
The magnets hold the line up cards in place even when they're soft from the humidity.
Ron M. West Virginia |
Been umpiring 28 years. Love it!!!
Brian R. Middletown, DE |
Great product and fits perfectly in your shirt or rear pants pocket. Your pen or pencil will fit in the middle and fold with ease. I would recommend this product to help store lineup cards.
Guadalupe G. San Juan, TX |
Nice size for softball line-up card.
Robert W. Lenexa, KS |
This lineup card holder is just perfect for my needs. The wind here in Kansas is intense during the spring and I have not once had a lineup card escape from me. This is very well done.
Justin M. Guadalupe, CA |
Awesome booklet, holds my cards well. Fits in all my pockets and is very sturdy. It has been hit a couple times and no damage. Just a baseball mark.
Chad M. Gilbert, SC |
At first, I balked at the price, but found this holder to be high quality, perfect size, and I love the double magnets! A+
Josh U. Glasgow, KY |
Another great product from Ray at UMPLIFE. It does the trick for lineups and game cards in all situations. Consider the size and that you will have to fold the lineups.
Aaron B. Huntingburg, IN |
Great product and great quality.
Carlos A. Anaheim, CA |
This lineup holder has great for me. Fits perfect in my pocket.
Mark S. Ottsville, PA |
Well worth it. Magnets work great.
Steven S. Jacksonville, FL |
This is an amazing product. It's THE best for baseball. I have both the 5" and 6" and I use the 6" for my pocket on games where I don't have a shirt pocket or it's raining.
Nick P. Henderson, NV |
This product is a nice product. I only gave it four stars because the cardboard in it seems really thin and flimsy. The magnets are strong and work very well. But writing on your game sheet, the cardboard needs to be a little more thicker and stronger. Overall good product but it could be a great product with that little adjustment.
Justin Bates Mallie, KY |
Keeps your cards secure and protected it’s my favorite out of all the ones I’ve tried. I lost my first one and immediately purchased another just like it.
Mark J. Luxemburg, WI |
I was a little skeptical at first because of the cost but it's well worth it. Magnets work great.
Keven W. Hillsdale, MI |
Works excellent easy to get out of the pocket and flip open.
Hassan C. Nanaimo, B.C. |
Feels like a great quality card holder. The only improvement I can think of would be to add a slot or “holder” to keep a pencils or pen in.
Thomas S. Porter Ranch, CA |
A huge improvement over the old lineup book I was using. I love how easy it is to open and close with the magnets. My only gripe -- albeit a minor one -- is that you must make sure your pen has a heavy-duty large clip, as clipping a smaller, plastic clip onto the center section can be difficult if trying to do so quickly. I found that using a better quality pen, with a thicker, metal clasp, solved this problem.
John R. Reno, NV |
This works great. Only regret is I wish I had gotten the larger size.
Matthew M. Indian Trail, NC |
I love this umpire lineup card holder so much that I bought a second one just to be sure I have a backup when needed (although it has proven to be very durable and should last for many seasons without a problem).
Straton G. Houston, TX |
Saw one of these for the first time when my partner whipped it out at a plate meeting. After fumbling with a notebook and paper clips to keep my lineups all season long, I instantly knew I had to have it. Never again will I hold up the game because I dropped a card while writing in a sub. It fits snug and securely in my chest pocket; the magnets are easy to open/close but still strong enough that my steel indicator will stick to it; a very solid surface to write on. If I had to nitpick, folding up the lineup cards to fit nicely was a little tough at first, but a small price to pay. LOOK SHARP TAKING LINEUPS AT YOUR NEXT PLATE MEETING.
Jeff J. Redmond, WA |
Recommended by a more senior umpire and they are great. I am the Umpire-in-Chief for our Little League and have bought a batch to hand to a number of other umpires as “thank you” gifts.
Antwan M. Douglasville, GA |
This is a very useful tool. I use it for football and baseball. It allows me to keep lineup cards separate with the magnetic clips. This saves valuable seconds in games.
Marcus U. Berlin, MD |
After dropping either my pencil or sometimes my laminated RefSmart card during varsity football games, I looked for something more secure for my shirt pocket. Fellow officials using competitor vinyl holders say they barely last a season before splitting or cracking. This holder made of better more flexible materials and should not crack with use. The magnet holders on top of each side let me use two RefSmart mirrored laminated cards so I can have fill out both home and visitor easily. The center spine holds my short pencil very securely. This football official card holder is much better than anything else out there--I looked on competitor and general shopping sites. Because postage charges make this more pricey I would recommend including it with a $99+ free shipping order.
Shawn T. Loveland, OH |
Perfect sized for the front pocket. Strong magnets and seems very durable compared to other similar products.
Bruce S. Grand Coulee, WA |
Excellent umpire lineup card holder. Big improvement over the old-style slip in folders.
Buster Kathleen, GA |
GHSA Softball: As we move away from handling softballs and not having the need for a ball bag. This pocket-size line-up card is the perfect size. Since this isn't cheap plastic, it will last about 3 seasons.
Chuck S. Hopkinsville |
I'm so glad Ump-Attire.com has an agreement with UmpLife for this type of product. This is the perfect lineup wallet, and the magnetic closure keeps things where they belong. Best products on the market.
Victor V. Grants Pass, OR |
Product is as advertised. Fits in back pocket easily. I like how it is magnetized, my flip coins stay stuck to it when not in use.
Ralph H. Jasper, IN |
Very much worth the money. I really like mine.
Dirk S. Ankeny, IA |
Have the 6" for softball, got the 5" for football, and works great! UPS lost the first one (no fault of Ump-Attire.com) the next day was sent a replacement. Great customer service as always backing a great product! The clips hold the game cards in place and the ability to hold my pencil tight inside leads to a clean look on the field!
Todd W. Hillsborough, NJ |
Fits perfect in any pocket and the magnetic clip keeps my paperwork well organized. This product is very easy to use.
Dallon C. Bettendorf, IA |
An essential item for me. I use a reusable game card for soccer, and this keeps the card from smearing my pencil marks. The magnets work really well and allow me to keep a spare set of cards and a sheet of paper for other game notes. I liked this so much I bought the larger version to hold the day to day pocket notebook I carry with me.
Chris N. Beloit, WI |
Absolutely the BEST! I love this wallet. Keeps everything right where it needs to be. Lineups are not all crumpled and falling out when you pull it out of your pocket. Thank you for the wonderful product!
Troy S. Omaha, NE |
This umpire lineup card holder works great. Very sturdy and durable. The magnets hold the card in place. Great accessory.
David G. Utah |
Best football accessory that I have ever purchased! The magnets hold my game cards perfectly and the hard cover gives a great writing surface. Wish I would have purchased this earlier.
Joe L. Camden, IN |
Great for holing lineups or your game cards for football. Love how it has no rip seam and your pencils fit in. Great product.
John G. Alexandria, VA |
This umpire lineup card holder is fantastic! Looks good and holds everything together nicely.
Michael A. Henryetta, OK |
Excellent! This lineup card holder was just what I was looking for! Perfect fit for your shirt pocket. If you like being organized then this lineup holder is for you!
James R. Fresno, CA |
Magnets keep everything in place, best referee wallet I could ask for.
Gordy B. Ellaville, GA |
Great product. Keeps the cards where you need them, making changes easier.
Justin K. Springfield, MO |
Amazing product. Fits perfectly in pocket. Nice hard surface to write on. Pen stays in place when shut. A must have for any umpire!!!
James N. Warren, OH |
As advertised. Great product.
Mark A. Grove City, OH |
This is a great product. Line-Ups stay put. Compact for pocket and spine does not rip like other products.
Lee D. Marietta, OH |
I recently used these in a game where the wind was up to 20 MPH. I didn't lose a line up and was able to look professional with running all over the field for a piece of paper. Great product! High quality!
Ben T. Jackson, TN |
After many seasons doing without, I'm glad I finally got this book. Not bulky, and has room to keep a pen inside as well. Love the magnetic feature which keeps it closed and the contents secured.
Anthony C. FLORIDA |
Love this book, it's small thin and works well with my different shirts.
Neal J. Wichita, KS |
Designed perfectly and with quality. Strong magnets keep your lineups organized and easily accessible and also help to keep the book closed. Plenty of room in the crease for a pen!
Colin B. Vacaville, CA |
This is a fantastic product. Easily fits in my chest pocket. Keeps everything nice and neat. No more trying to slide lineups in a holder. A must have for every umpire!
Duncan M. Palm Bay, FL |
There's nothing better than an item that does exactly what it is supposed to do and does it well. Easy to write on, fits in the front pocket without showing, and opens without effort even though there are magnets. Doesn't appear to be cheaply made and looks durable.
Austin A. Tampa, FL |
Haven't gotten to use yet so I will update when I do, but the quality seems great and I love how you can put a pen on the inside and still close it and it holds the pen in place.
Chris E. Davenport, IA |
With it being the off season I won't have a chance to use this for a few months but the quality looks very good, fits well in my shirt pocket and will help finish off my professional look at plate meetings and during games. I'm looking forward to using it.
Martin J. Warner Robins, GA |
I love the 5" Pro Grade Magnetic Lineup Card Holder. It is firm and easy to handle and write on in your hands.
Jeremy J. Los Angeles, CA |
I love the 5" Pro Grade Magnetic Game Card Referee Wallet. I have been looking for this particular product for over two years now and I finally found what I was looking for in this particular product. I love it's hard surface that also holds my pen AND fits all of my cards in my front pocket. 6 star and 3 thumbs up from me! :)
Mark C. Savannah, GA |
This game card wallet is very professional looking and is far more durable than the lightweight vinyl style. I have made Ump-Attire.com my site of choice for all of my gear.
Brent S. Iowa |
Awesome! No more folding the game card in half. The hard magnetic surface makes it easy to write and holds everything in place. My pencil fits inside as well! It is worth the money!
Colby H. Jacksonville, IL |
Scott nailed it in his two-minute review video. Solid and sturdy. The magnets do a great job keeping the book closed and a typical pen or pencil fits in there nicely. I have the 5" version and love it.
John C. Cranston, RI |
Thought that it was a little pricey when I ordered it but decided to give it a look. Now that I have it, I think that it was well worth the price. The quality is easily the best that I have ever seen in a pocket game card holder. Love the magnetic catches. It easily fits in my shirt pocket and makes for a stiff writing surface when opened.
Jeremy K. Waunakee, WI |
Love, love, love this lineup card holder. It is slim and fits in your chest pocket perfectly. I have the 5" version. If I could give it 6 stars, I would! Highly recommended.
Tim T. Arkansas |
Great!!! I love the magnet setup!
Bob D. Tewksbury, MA |
I like these umpire game books. I ordered a few of them in the event they stop making them. Best I've ever used.
Jason P. Belle Plaine, MN |
Absolutely love this folder, I have the 6" for baseball and wouldn't go with any other folder absolutely the best with out a doubt.
William D. Idaho |
What can I say, but Wow... Makes me look good...
Chad D. Saint Peters, MO |
The magnet is a huge plus. Don't have to worry about game card flying away if you drop it.
Tim R. Belleville, MI |
I hate to say it, but I think that this product is poorly constructed. I purchased this card holder to be used for football. I am very particular about my gear and I was intrigued by the design of this holder. At first glance, it was great. It felt sturdy, and it looks sleek. I was excited to test it in a preseason scrimmage today to see how it felt in my shirt pocket and just give it a "dry run". Only problem was that it was not a dry run... it rained, hard. Nothing out of the ordinary but it rained. When I first got the holder, it was stiff and sturdy. Now, after the rain, it feels flimsy. Literally I can fold it in half with little to no resistance. If I could post a picture I would. I will not be using this product going forward.
Brian B. Bismarck, ND |
The best lineup card book/holder on the market!! The 5" fits perfectly in most chest pockets (as opposed to the 6" that sticks out a bit). Of all the items I've bought, this has by far and away got the most complements and "I need to get one of those" comments from others in my association. The magnets make it so easy to work with. If you buy one accessory on your next order, make it this one!
James W. Calgary, ALBERTA |
Great size for your shirt or ball bag. Also have the older longer one that did stick out of the pocket. Does require some creative folding of line-ups especially with the variety of sizes out there to have the batting order visible.
Timothy M. Missouri |
This is the perfect size to fit in my ball bag and with the magnetic clips on each side easy to keep lineup cards separate!!! Great Job!!!
Thomas Q. Chelmsford, MA |
Very strong and flexible leather and looks great for all levels as I do a lot of USA tournaments and High School softball. Should last a lot longer than the cheap plastic versions that ASA and USA have sold to me in the past.
Tom P. Peace River, AB, Canada |
Love the new size. Fits well in the shirt pocket and holds a pen in the fold securely. Great writing surface (beats the top of your thigh). Looks very professional out on the field.
Donald D. Gresham, OR |
Good construction and well made, will do the job and add to the professional look too!
Rob V. New Jersey |
Fits perfect in shirt pocket. Pen also fits in the middle with no issue. Great product!
Doug C. Richmond, VA |
This is the best. The smaller size fits in the front pocket, holds line ups nicely, and the magnets work great.
Timothy H. New Brighton, PA |
Used the 6 inch version for a long time. Like it a lot! Secure hold of lineup cards, holds full sized pen and fits snug in pocket. But the 5 inch one is even better since it actually FITS in the pocket! I bought 2 so I can give one to the partner I work with all the time. Highly, highly recommend!!
Timothy B. Port Lavaca, TX |
Very nice. Will purchase another.
Gregor Delaware, OH |
Magnets are strong that hold the cards in place as well as keep the book closed. Size is great for umpiring and slides in my shirt pocket with ease. Product is durable and will clearly hold up to several seasons of baseball.
Gene M. Burton, MI |
The first practical lineup holder I have found; great product for umpires.
Richard D. Santa Maria, CA |
I bought this to make it easier to keep the lineup and pencil in the same place. I love it. Great job guys!
Christopher C. Lake Station, IN |
Perfect size. I bought one to use for both baseball\softball and football in the fall. Durable but opens easily. Lineups stay right in place with no effort. Fits perfectly in my pocket - Unseen. Professional looking.
Joshua |
Fits great into any pocket you put it in and very easy to write on.
Jeremiah W. Edmond, OK |
Magnets work great even with coaches using card stock paper. Fits in front shirt pocket nicely but a little big to fit in ball bag pocket.
Kori D. Louisiana |
This is an absolute dream to have in your pocket. It holds each line up firmly and still has room for your writing utensil. Keeps everything in order and in reach. Very sturdy construction and a slick professional look.
Eric V. Rome NY |
Fits perfectly in shirt pocket and makes life easier writing changes throughout the game.
Wayne L. RENO, NV |
This is the only way to go with lineups.
Terry B. Provo, UT |
Best line up card holder available. Very professional, not flimsy plastic that cracks and falls apart. Love the magnetic tabs that hold the cards and pen. Perfect size for pocket or ball bag. Thanks for a top quality product.
Terry M. Bakersfield, CA |
I love my new line-up holder. Great quality and easy to get in and out of my bag.
Jerry W. Winter Haven, FL |
I liked the previous 6" version just fine but this one fits wherever you want to put it. Real handy.
Matt R. MIDLOTHIAN, VA |
Durable material and strong magnets. Works well to hold the lineup cards in place and provides a stable writing board. Very pleased.
J R. Clarksville, TN |
Solid material. Will last longer than one season and fits well in ball bag or shirt pocket!
Stan H. Barboursville, WV |
Perfect size. Works very well.
Michael O. Santee, CA |
Great product. Like the magnetic holders and firm writing surface.
Michael S. Port Angeles, WA |
What can I say this is an awesome addition for any umpire. Very compact and fits anywhere you want to keep it and it's strong and durable. Great addition for anyone looking for a lineup holder. Well done!!!
Justin A. Newark, OH |
Perfect size, I really prefer how it does not stick out over the pocket, and the magnets are great for those cold windy early spring days ahead.
James P. San Mateo, CA |
Great size and great fit in my uniform pocket. Price could be a bit lower but the holder is quality. Nice leather, good strong magnets, good feel, light weight, and it holds a pen well.
Robert N. Denville, NJ |
Have only used it once so far, but I could not fit it into the pocket of my umpire shirt. I'm not sure if it was the particular shirt or not.
Pat A C. West Monroe, LA |
Very impressed. Magnet is strong but easy to open, it have been knocked out of pocket and remained intact. Would highly recommend.
Tito Santa Barbara, CA |
The 5" book style card holder works very well with the magnetic holders. I have used the plastic style holders in the past and they tear at the fold after one season. I work football and softball games and this card holder will be part of my uniform equipment going forward. A great addition would be a pocket on the outside covers to hold pregame information cards.
Wayne S. Clarksville, TN |
Perfect card holder, your pen fits and will never fall out, hard back to write on easily and will fit in front shirt or back pants pockets.
Kim S. Seattle, WA |
Excellent! Fits in my front or back pocket easily. I use it for football and baseball.
Brett W. Madras, OR |
Great product. Already had been using the 6" lineup card holder for baseball. This one is perfect for the front shirt pocket and the offset magnets now make it very compressed. Highly recommended. Two years ago I considered the 6" version which was my best purchase of the season for baseball. The new smaller version doesn't disappoint either!
Samuel P B. Punxautawney , PA |
Great lineup holder. You don't have to slide lineup into plastic slots like other holders and the pen doesn't fall out.
Joseph M. CANFIELD , OH |
Great item. Fits perfectly in front pocket and the magnets hold everything secure.
Doug E. New Canton, IL |
Love the magnet. Enough room to fold your pencil in.
John M. Gilford, NH |
Top notch product holds card secure and fits nicely into front pocket. A great product!
Eric P. Kaufman, TX |
I thought this may have been a little pricey for a card holder. But, since I received it, I can't see being without it in a game. The offset magnets are great. They are strong and keep it closed. And it's semi-firm, for a smooth writing surface.
Mark H. North Charleston, SC |
Compact yet sturdy as its bigger brother. Hides well in your pocket and the offset magnets work great and keeps the line up card holder nice and thin.
Bradley P. Snyder, TX |
I like the fact that the pencil stays inside the book without having to slide it into the holder like other referee books. Just toss the pencil inside and close it up and the pencil stays put. Plus after a few seasons the pencil holder on my other books breaks pretty easy. The magnet card holder is nice too, it's easier to slide cards under the magnet rather that the plastic sleeve.
Bob L. Los Angeles, CA |
Big improvement over the first edition of this referee game wallet. Smaller and the staggered magnets do the trick in making it fit the pocket better. Highly recommend.
Mike B. Madisonville, KY |
Great product. Perfect size and firm enough to write on. Magnets hold score cards perfectly.
