The Forbes High Year 12 student has been umpiring in the FNA Umpire Development program since he started playing netball six years ago.
He has improved up the ladder, gaining his bronze, silver and gold local umpire certificates.
Jack is now qualified to umpire at Regional League, Netball NSW State Championships and Netball NSW State Age Championships, and is also open to camps and training run by NNSW Umpires Committee.
Forbes Netball Association’s Robyn Kenny is proud of Jack’s attainment.
“Jack displays a huge enthusiasm for umpiring and the FNA Committee congratulate him for this outstanding achievement.
“He is full of energy – a very enthusiastic umpire.
“Jack is very passionate, he loves to play and he loves to umpire,” Mrs Kenny said.
Jack will continue to better himself as he chases higher accreditation.
“He is going to try to keep improving his skills and work towards a higher badge.”
Jack has been invited back to officiate at the Regional League competition this Sunday in Orange.
