Umpiring
When umpiring in pairs – please can only one person make the decision. Also, both to keep mobile, moving from the oncoming ball & to 4th post with each part of active play

Rule definitions Still some confusion on a couple of matters but it is nice to see we are all thinking.
Definition of hand. When stumping a post, the ball itself does not need to touch the post, just the hand or any part of the hand holding the ball (hand is below the wrist)
Making a Bad ball good This comment is meant that a batter can ‘make the best’ of a bad ball. Also, that a ball may be bad, but if the batter moves before the ball reaches them, it could be that this will then deem the ball good in the eye of the umpire. I.e. a ball which may fall short when the batter starts at the back of the box. If the batter moves forward a period before the ball arrives, on arrival, the ball may be a good ball.
Runner and scorer. If a runner is stumped out on a post, and a potential scorer is running behind, the scorer must also be stumped out – the stumping will not count for both persons.

Registration Fees
If teams have any more players, please complete the continuation sheets and hand to Flo with fees.
