BERMUDA BRIEF

Bermuda will once again be well represented at the West Indies Cricket Umpires Association's biennial cricket conference to be held in Kingston, Jamaica from June 24-29.

Long-serving executive member of the Bermuda Cricket Umpires Association Randy Butler and Stephen Douglas, one of the most active officials in local cricket over the last few years, will be the two delegates chosen to represent Bermuda while accompanying them as observers will be George Francis and Ronald O'Hara.

Butler and Wilbur Pitcher were the two Bermuda delegates at the previous convention held in New York two years ago.

By sending such a formidable contingent Bermuda continue to make their presence felt at functions organised by both the WICUA and the West Indies Cricket Board having sent Butler and Francis to Antigua last year to attend a four-day seminar put on by the WICB and conducted by ICC first-class and Test umpire and lecturer Nigel Plews at which the latest changes to the laws of cricket were the main items on the agenda.

One of the main items expected to be featured this time around in Kingston is the election of a new WICUA president with Justice Rudolph Harper planning to stand down after being in the position for 15 years.
