When Keely came to visit...

Keely Dunn, former FIH umpire and 'umpire whisperer' from Canada, runs the excellent resource FHumpires.com and is a supporter of umpires wanting to get better everywhere. In her regular 'What-up Wednesday' sessions streamed live on YouTube, she takes us through some of the best recent footage of incidents from matches played around the world. Discussions are lively, covering the decisions made (and not made), all designed to help us think about what we are doing with a whistle in our hands.

We are delighted to announce that Keely will be coming to visit South Central not once, but twice in September, in interactive sessions designed primarily for umpires taking neutral appointments, but open to all umpires keen to improve. We haven't had a pre-season gathering for quite some time, so it's a great opportunity to meet up with colleagues from around the area.

Wednesday 6th September, 7.30pm, Fareham Hockey Club

Thursday 7th September, 7.30pm, Reading Hockey Club

Please let us know if you are able to come along to a session - we'd love to show her a proper South Central welcome!
