| Notes from the President: Our Webmaster made a suggestion to me that I try and do a Monthly message to our umpires. I will try and use this as a way to keep everyone up to date with what is going on within BNSUD. My first message was about our new supplier – Pro Image. We have heard lots of positive feedback about getting a new supplier. I hope that everything works out positively with this supplier. Pro Image is working on finalizing some things, but everything is progressing and they are working with us. As more information becomes available, we will notify you. If there are any issues, please let me or Randy Delaney know. I want to mention the number of email's I have received looking for additional information about clinic dates and locations. This is a very positive position to be in. We are working very hard to schedule as many clinics in the various areas of the province and as we get them scheduled, the information will be added to the website. Please check the link to see the clinics in your area. If there are any associations looking for a clinic, please send an email to myself and I will pass it on to the appropriate UIC to try and set up. We don’t have an abundance of instructors for the clinics which may limit when we can have the clinics. We are aiming to have all clinics finished by the middle of June as this is when the ball season starts getting busy and the free time for our instructors is reduced. I strongly encourage any current umpires to attend a clinic this year as there will be a lot of changes coming through – some very good, some indifferent to us. I encourage you when you register this year to make sure you give us your email address. It is the easiest way for us to pass on any information quickly. Any time that we have to do a mail out, it costs money and if we can avoid the costs, the less chance of us having to increase our fees to offset the additional expenses. I would like to congratulate our BNSUD members who have been chosen to represent Nova Scotia at various Nationals. Senior – Andrew Downs and Martin Beaulieu Junior – Shawn Young Midget – Dennis Crotty Canada Cup – Steve Snow Bantam – Randy Delaney Pee Wee – Brian Lamb and Kevin Purchase Canada Games – Andy Callaghan and Joel Rodgers We are sending the 5th most umpires amongst all the provinces – only behind Ontario, Quebec, BC and Alberta. Based on availability and eligibility, all National program umpires are attending a National this season. I would like to that the National Selection Committee members – Joe Hanratty, Blaine Gallant and Ken Evans for their work. If you are looking for more information about the National program, please let me know. Joel Rodgers President BNSUD |
