MID CANTERBURY PLAYER UMPIRES
All teams in Premier 1, Premier 2, Premier 3 and Senior grade are expected to umpire. All players from within these grades must have completed Mid Canterbury Netball’s new online umpiring test prior to umpiring. It can be found HERE.
It is the team official’s (manager/coach/captain) responsibility to ensure all players have completed this prior to playing their first game. Any players not completing this requirement will be deemed to be an unregistered player.
This module must be completed unless the player holds a current umpiring qualification of Centre Badge or above and is able to provide evidence of this.
Test Preparation
Players are advised to read the INF Rule Book prior to taking the test.
Clubs are reminded they MUST advise the Mid Canterbury Netball Umpire Coordinator if a player umpire has changed with someone else otherwise the one listed on the draw will be the one penalised if they don't turn up. It is recommended each Club appoint an Umpire Liaison who is the person players go to if they are unable to umpire the game allocated. The liaison will be familiar with all requirements of umpire appointments (e.g. the replacement must be capable of umpiring the same level) and assist with finding a suitable replacement before advising the Umpire Coordinator.
