Umpire Development Programme

PHC Chiswick has started our first ever Umpire Development Programme.  Head down to the pitch at 7:15pm on the night of your own training, and find the group in either:
  • Ladies Change room or Community Room at Linford
  • Kitchen/Classroom area at Acton

Each team should send at least two representatives, but more are welcome.  Umpiring experience is absolutely not necessary and there is no commitment to umpire games attached to coming to the course.  It's a great way to brush up on your rules, get a feel for the role of the umpire and see if you like the job.

For more information email umpires@phcchiswick.com
