The allocated paid umpire is responsible for completing their duty. 

If they are unable to do so they must provide a minimum of 24 hours’ notice to the Forest Umpires Convenor.

​

If no notice is given that umpire will be removed from the paid list until consideration by the Forest Umpires Convenor is given to return.

​

Forest Umpiring Roster

The roster process will remain the same as previous years for 12yr, 13yr, 14yr players.

​

Cadet and Senior teams are required to advise the Umpire Convenor if they wish to umpire their own duties or require a paid umpire.

The roster will be devised based on this information.
