@visse264 @fhumpires Criticism is one thing - and yes we are used to it.
Calling us cheats is something completely different and is NOT a "part of the sport"

Have you ever over-relied on umpiring radios? @tomda176 🇳🇿reminds us to get the basic skills right, including positioning and signalling. Most of all: don't talk too much!

Fantastic session... great opportunity to engage in quality, genuine, constructive interaction. Thanks for letting me sit in!

[EH Umpiring @EHUmpiring]

Huge thank you to @SarahRobertson_ and @MarkGleghorne for giving up their time to discuss umpiring from the Players perspective, sharing frustrations hints and tips on how umpires can positively impact on a game. Both were superb and a credit to @GBHockey

[David Tomlinson @tomda176]

Looking forward to this one... even if it is at 2am!!!

Comms massivley help fans understand how umpires are calling the game. Simon Mason, 🇬🇧 Oly/🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 GK and 🎙️🌟, explains how he brings playing experience, rules knowledge & media savvy to the booth in Ep. 15 of #UmpireAtHome!

Our free web sessions about umpiring have been so popular, we've organised a load more in June, with more special guests being booked all the time.

@EHUmpiring @Hockey_Brett Great session. Thank you @DavidElworthy @Hockey_Brett 👏👏
Also good to have input from @tomda176 & @fhumpires to the chats. Key message was coaches & umpires should engage more. Not necessarily during the game 😄

@fhumpires @GoddersSteve @DavidElworthy @mashednmangled @EHUmpiring @Hockey_Brett Thanks for letting me join in! Was a great session and the more positive and informative interaction we can have between coaches and umpires the better!

[Keely | FHumpires 🏑🇨🇦🌏 @fhumpires]

@DavidElworthy @mashednmangled @EHUmpiring @Hockey_Brett Had tons of fun even if @tomda176 is low-key stalking me from the other side of the world (J/K, I'm actually stalking him).

Coaches like @Hockey_Brett show leadership (and bravery 😏) taking part in these chats, and I feel like we’re shifting some culture here. Great stuff!

Miss 6: Dad, that side of your hair is turning brown, but this side is turning grey.
Me: Yep, that's because it's the side closest to you.

"It takes a lot to be vulnerable, because how people react to your vulnerability is going to allow you to do it"

All Blacks head coach Steve Hansen speaks powerfully about the importance of talking about mental health.

One of the ‘moments’ of the day for me. @GCP01 and @GBHockey have 15 minutes earlier lost 4-0 to Belgium, yet George immediately ensures that one young man goes home happy. @FlyerzHockey #noothersport @AccessSport

Just had an email from a mate I haven't talked to in a while. He's tied up in a meeting but desperately needs six $100 itune vouchers. Seems legit. Do I just get them from the supermarket or is there somewhere else? #HelpingOutAMate

[David Tomlinson @tomda176]

21 years after I last umpired at Hatch Cup... real honour to be able to take the field again, and a privilege to umpire Wanganui and Marlborough's final game at Hatch 2018. Thanks Kevin @CMG #u13s #WarmUpForWorldCup #23v24 #harderthanIremember #HockeyNZ #FIH
