News
The Panel was formed in 1987 when structured cricket came to the Surrey Championship. In those early days the sole object of the Panel was to supply Umpires for Surrey Championship matches. Since then our role has expanded greatly and although the Championship is our main priority, we now supply umpires to Surrey 2nd XI matches, Surrey Age Group matches, Cockspur Cup, National Village Competition and many other competitions. We also get asked to appoint umpires to various other corporate and friendly matches.
There are currently four main criteria that have to be met before any application to join the Panel will be considered.
These criteria are kept under constant review to take account of any changes that may take place in the administration of cricket.
