[CUCBC Coxes] Umpiring May Bumps

[Conor Burgess]

Dear all,

Thank you to everyone who has signed up to Umpire the Mays so far. However, we could do with about 20 more people to make the rota nicer for everyone, so if you’re thinking of signing up and haven’t yet, or you know someone eligible who you think might be interested, now’s the time to sign up/encourage them to sign up!

Also, as some of you noticed, the briefing is not in March! It’ll be in the lecture theatre in Emma at 17:30 on Sunday 10th JUNE.

Thanks,
Conor

Furthermore, everyone who volunteers for umpiring before Monday 4th June will count towards their college's marshal allocation (if you sign up after this, please drop me an email!).

However, we do ask that you have rowed or coxed in at least 2 sets of bumps before so that you understand how the races work.
