Nigeria Participates At ICC Umpire Tutor’s Course In Zimbabwe
Two senior umpires from Nigeria, Musa Ehizoje Bodie and Deborah Orukpe, participated in the maiden edition of the International Cricket Council (ICC) Umpire Tutor’s Course in Harare, Zimbabwe.
The course took place from the July 1st – 3rd, 2023 in Harare.
The ICC Umpire Tutor’s Course was designed to train qualified umpires from member countries in Africa to become ICC tutors with the responsibility of training and certifying umpires that will be taking the ICC level 1 courses in their various countries.
Other responsibilities of the tutors will require them to deploy the training skills that have been learnt to help improve the efficiency of umpires and the quality of umpiring through regular physical assessment and feedback.
Gender balance and participation are other areas of importance in the overall development of umpires as mandated by the ICC.
