The National fee must be paid along with our provincial registration fee each year, paying for the following year (example, pay in 2010 for 2011 season).The National fee is not refundable if you do not want to be national certified the following year. Neither is it refundable if you do not pass your national exam. All National Exams must be written before June 1st to be eligible for next year certification. The Level 4 program is difficult but rewarding, unfortunately only a few assignments are available each year. There are more level 4 umpires then assignments. The BNSUD selection committee will recommend the selections to the National body. The wait will be worth it when you finally reach the Nationals. |
