How long have you been umpiring, and how did you get in to umpiring?
I started my umpiring back in 2014 with my first tournament being Maori Nationals held in Tauranga where I achieved my Centre Badge. I first got in to umpiring where a friend of mine who was playing at the time, invited me to come and watch and I was then asked if I could umpire and I was nervous as first time umpires do become.
Netball New Zealand (NNZ) is proud to celebrate the commitment and hard work of our volunteers with the 2017 NNZ Volunteer Awards.
