2022-23 Umpire Courses!!!

THE GAME NEEDS MORE UMPIRES

See below some information about the up-and-coming umpire courses across Derbyshire.

ECB Stage 1 Online

For anybody who is brand-new to umpiring and would like to give it a go for 2023.

This might be most suited to a brand new club umpire or someone who would like to start umpiring occasionally in league games.

ECB Stage 2 Face-to-Face

This whole-day course is designed to equip those seeking to be regular new panel umpires with most of the laws & fieldcraft tools they will need.  That said, anyone with an interest is welcome to book, even if they’re unsure about umpiring next year.

Cost: £30

All current umpires (ideally with a year or two’s experience) are welcome to book.

Laws & Playing Conditions Forum – 9th Jan onwards (either free or a nominal amount to help cover costs, TBC)

In the new year I plan to hold an informal weekly forum where we will go Law-by-Law (including Law Changes and Playing Conditions relevant to each law) through the Laws of the game and share our knowledge & experiences.  This will likely be via Zoom, though if there is plenty of interest it could be face-to-face with Zoom in the background ‘hybrid’-style.  Anyone is welcome.
