Are you a budding Young Umpire? Do you want to develop your umpiring further? Are you a club with Young Umpires looking for development opportunities?
This year's North Young Umpire Challenge takes place on Sunday 29th March at Leeds University, run by the North Young Umpire Action Group, in conjunction with North Hockey Association.
We are looking for Young Umpires aged 13-21 to represent their club / county, umpiring the North In2Hockey Finals. All umpires will need to be on camp from 6pm on the Saturday evening to prepare for the following day where they umpire matches and receive coaching and support from qualified umpire coaches. You should ideally already hold a Level 1 Umpiring qualification but those working towards this will also be considered.
All umpires will receive accommodation on the Saturday night, breakfast and lunch on the Sunday along with an umpiring shirt. There will also be awards for the "Most Promising" umpires and an opportunity for those selected to join the North Young Umpire Promising List. More information about the Promising List and the opportunities it offers can be found on the North RYUAG section of the North Website.
This is an ideal opportunity for any umpire wishing to develop further and is where many of the top North Young Umpires started their umpiring careers and have gone on to umpire at both Regional and National level.
