Captains - please note
Monday 25th July 2005

The electronic mailing of the captains marks for umpires to the Appointments Secretary, Mike Dixon at mcua@blueyonder.co.uk is seen as an efficient and time saving exercise and also clarifies any doubt about such marks being received.

To this end, captains are requested to commence e-mailing the marks forthwith if possible. Only the overall mark is required so each Umpire will require one mark per captain. The skill area marks are no longer required.

Posting umpire's marks on the 'Printed Card' can continue for the remainder of this season if e-mail should present a problem.

From the start of the 2006 season, ALL Umpire's marks are to forwarded by e-mail for expediency and hopefully more promptly by those clubs running up a considerable  level of fines at the present time, which is unsatisfactory to all concerned.
