The next umpires workshop will be on Saturday (26 September) at the Maram from 1:30pm.
We will look at some obscure situations and have lots of practice (and run exams for anyone who hasn’t done one yet).
Please come along if you are available – this is likely to be the 2nd last workshop before the nationals.
I still need at least 10 more umpires; if you know anyone who might be interested, please let them know.
A form for all those wishing to register for umpiring at the 2009 Nationals is now online.

Hi all
Sportsbet has released a market for the 2009 Nationals, with current prices available for the Open Singles, Ladies Singles, Ladies Teams, Masters Singles and Masters Teams. Matt Harmon ($21), Nicole Welsh ($9) and Peter Smith ($31) are are lowest priced runners in each category, while the Masters Team are paying $51 and the Ladies $10 for the win. Not sure when they will have the Open Team there, but rumour is you will be able to bet on the matches as well.
To view the markets, simply follow the link below. I’m putting my money on the locals to show the rest how it’s done.
