| MCA Umpiring committee for 2009 is chaired by head umpires Mr. Alston Dutchin and Mr. Kirit Bhakta. Committee members include Mr. Charles Peterson, Mr. Dwight Stewart, Mr. Hemant Bhakta, Mr. Faraz Shaukat, and Mr. Chandra Pakala. The primary purpose of the committee is to ensure a high standard of officiating for all MCA games. The committee conducted four seminars this season. In every seminar, the head umpires along with Mr. Charles Peterson had an interactive discussion with the attendees and explained the laws of the game. A set of stumps with an crease was at the center of the room. This allowed for all attendees to have a practical insight and ask any questions. The committee has set a very high standard and goals for 2009. Umpires have been encouraged to officate extra games and rules have been clearly stated. The interactive sessions is something new for the league and the results have been very impressive so far. The committee has take the responsibility of teaching the rules of the game to the players and to ensure that there is a consistency of umpiring. Mr. Alston Dutchin is one of the founding members of the league and has been a head umpire and president before. His experience with umpiring has been an asset for the committee and his leadership has been essential for grooming new umpires. Mr. Kirit Bhakta has been an elite umpire in the league for over 15 years and his interactive approach to teaching was a much needed step. They have been working very hard in the offseason and look forward to serving MCA in thee 2009 season. | |||
