Cricket Australia would like to congratulate the inaugural recipients of the newly created Community Umpires of the Month award – Doug King of Cricket Far North UA (QLD) and Ava Danholt of Metropolitan Junior Cricket Council (WA).
Doug was nominated for his tremendous contributions as an Umpire Coordinator whilst enjoying an overseas holiday and his eagerness to assist in umpire education within the CFNUA. Ava was nominated for her personal initiative to run a ‘Come and Try’ session at her cricket club where 10 additional members completed their umpire accreditation.
November nominations are open and if you know of an umpire who is contributing to their UA, association and/or community, you can nominate them by completing the nomination form here.
