We are pleased to be able to confirm details of two ECB Umpire courses at Trent Bridge this November.

We will be offering two courses on the same day - one restricted to females only. We also aim to schedule another course, in the north of the county, in the New Year.

This new ECB Umpiring course is designed to give new umpires the key skills, knowledge and confidence to stand as an umpire in cricket. No prior experience of umpiring in cricket is required before attending the course although learners must be at least 14 years of age.
