UMPIRES REWARDED AT FNC STATE LEAGUE

While the Far North Coast State League competition gears up for the Grand Final, two umpires from Lismore were given their own rewards over the weekend.

Rachelle Watson and Lauren Diamond received their Umpiring ‘B’ badge while officiating the FNC State League at Yamba Indoor Courts on Sunday.

Watson, a NetSetGo! coordinator for Lismore Netball Association, has been concentrating on her umpiring skills after first developing an interest in coaching. Watson attended the national ‘C’ badge camp earlier this year and was identified by respected ‘A’ badge holder Kate Thornborough in Round One of the FNC State League in last July.

Like Watson, Diamond has also slowly progressed on her umpiring pathway. She has been a long time member of the FNC Academy of Sport Umpire Development program, and recently represented the region at the Hunter NIB Netball Tournament.

Netball NSW would like to congratulate both girls on their recent achievements!

The FNC State League Grand Final will be held THIS WEEKEND on Sunday 19 August, with the first centre pass at 10.00am. Grafton, who remained undefeated for the 2012 season, will meet Ballina at Yamba Indoor Courts. It is expected be an exciting match after Ballina only lost to one team this season, which was Grafton by just three goals.
