Some quick cricket updates for you all.

Umpiring courses

Apparently there is an overwhelming feeling among experienced umpires that online training of umpires is not being very effective. Hence the move back to in-person training. With the in-person training, the number of slots are fixed. Please check out the dates, and book the dates based on what suits you. 

Please read through the initiatives being offered by the club to take up umpiring at: https://sandyfordcricket.club/2022/09/24/sandyford-cricket-club-umpiring-initiatives/

As always, if you have any questions, please call the club secretary.

Scorer courses

Are limited to 10 people per course and are free. Please see the document below for details. Please register if you are interested. Each team needs to have a few people who are well versed in scoring.
