Richmond Teams Tournament will now be played on Saturday, 21st June, not Sunday 22nd as programmed. Contact Geraldine 021 136 1288.
The Umpires Committee is asking for anyone wishing to join the ranks of Umpires to make yourselves known to either another umpire or get in touch with us. It is a rewarding job and you get to be right there in the box seat at games so I strongly suggest all players consider it. At the very least it will help you with your game and give you confidence just knowing the rules. No player is too new to the sport. If you would like to know more and just have questions please contact me. I am happy to talk to you! Also any umpire wishing to go for re-accreditation, please contact me as soon as possible if you have not received an email from me. We are about to set a date for the exam and would like to know numbers involved.
