Scorers Congratulations.
Congratulations to Mrs Dawn Pugh on her appointment as Worcester County first team scorer and to Phil Mellish on his appointment as second team scorer.

New Appointments Email Address
Chris Bryant has started sending out spreadsheets requesting umpires availability for WCUSA appointments for 2012. Please be aware that we will now be using a new email address 'apptswcusa@yahoo.co.uk' for all matters concerning these appointments. This allows other members of the appointments committee to pick up emails during Chris's absence(s). Please check that any anti-spam software that you might be using does not block emails from this address or directs them into a 'spam' folder.
Anyone who has not received this communication by email or post by 13th January and wishes to be considered for WCUSA appointments should contact Chris.

CONGRATULATIONS.
It gives me great pleasure to inform you that our President, Peter Stevens, has been awarded Honorary Life Membership of ECB ACO in recognition of his work for the Association.
I think it is appropriate at this time to add our thanks to Peter for the service he has given to our Association since its inception in 1971 and hopefully for the service he will continue to give for some time to come.
Congratulations Peter.

Chairman.

Barrie Leadbeater - Guest Speaker in February

We are pleased to announce that former international umpire and first-class cricketer Barrie Leadbeater will be the guest speaker at our meeting on February 16th starting at 8:00pm. We hope as many members as possible will attend this event.

New Disciplinary Procedure.
Following several complaints received regarding the attitudes of some of our members when umpiring, particularly age group cricket, the committee felt it necessary to adopt a form of disciplinary procedure. The procedure, agreed by the committee, can be found on the Fixtures page of this site

Change of Personal Details.
Members please note that any changes to personal information address, telephone numbers, email addresses and CRB Numbers should be notified to the Hon.Secretary only, who will then advise the appropriate Association Officers ie: Appointments Officer, Welfare Officer and Treasurer.
Thanks you for your assistance.
John Collins.
