Applicants must have:
-
Attended a C umpiring course within 2 years* prior to successfully passing the Written Assessment
-
Entered evidence of umpiring experience in the C Award Log Book containing a variety of matches which are appropriate to the level of the award the umpire is working towards i.e. good standard school, junior or club matches. This must include a minimum of at least 4 matches as identified by County Officiating Personnel
-
Successfully passed the Written Assessment (result is valid for two years*)
Practical Assessment Arrangements
-
Assessments will be conducted on good standard school, junior or club matches within the learner’s County and/or at events specified by the County.
-
In exceptional circumstances an assessment may be taken out of County and then only with the agreement of both County Officiating Leads
-
The County will be responsible for arranging venues, allocating the Assessors and notifying learners of the assessment arrangements.
Assessors
Two currently accredited ‘C’ Award Assessors appointed by the County will conduct the practical assessment. Each Assessor will assess the learners independently, and the result will be determined after thorough discussion between the two Assessors, with the nominated Lead Assessor having the final decision.
Form of Assessment
-
Learners will be observed for a minimum of 30 minutes and a maximum of 40 minutes in a match.
-
They will need to achieve a minimum grade of 3 in five of the eight sections as per the criteria laid out in the Performance grades and competencies and ensure they have a thorough understanding of the scoring system.
-
If required, the Learner will have to answer successfully oral questions in the post match debriefing.
-
They will receive written feedback either on the day or within one week of the Assessment.
Results
-
The names of the successful Learners will be registered on ENgage within 7 days of England Netball receiving the eLARF from the Assessor. Learners should retain a copy of the eLARF that is sent out to them and if required use the Qualifications section on their ENgage account to prove validity of their award.
-
Counties may in addition, choose to issue successful learners with an umpire award pin badge.
-
Any Learner who does not meet the criteria (NYMC) in the Practical Assessment is able to retake the Practical Assessment provided they are within the written assessment validation period. The Lead Assessor will advise on the minimum period required before applying to take another practical assessment. The Assessor has the responsibility to advise the timeline and Europe Netball recommends that this is 3 months.
*Learners should consult with their County to determine if an extension due to the COVID 19 pandemic applies. Extensions are available for learners with expiry dates that fall between 16th March 2020 – 31st August 2021.
