2016 FINAL WRITTEN EXAMINATION RESULTS

November 9, 2016

Hello fellow Umpires:

I take pleasure in announcing the WICUA Final Written Exam results of 2016. I would like to take the opportunity to congratulate all successful candidates. As far as I can remember, this seems to be the first time that there has been a record 100% passes in the written exam. It is therefore quite an achievement by the WICUA to have this fantastic result.

On behalf of the WICUA, I would like to thank all the trainers who put out tremendous effort in preparing these candidates to achieve this feat.

Secretary WICUA

Subject: 2016 Final Written Examination Results

The 2016 WICUA Final Written Examination candidates were all successful at attaining 70% and more.  I extend congratulations to each of the Forty (40) candidates who wrote this year examinations and have found the light at the end of tunnel.  

There was a tie for the highest mark of 91%: Roger Pittiman - Canada and Imran Khan - United States of America while the next highest mark of 89% was achieved by Vicki Laura Daniel of Trinidad & Tobago.

Each of you demonstrated that hard work and perseverance pays off. It is indeed an occasion for each member Territory Training Committee to celebrate with their candidates for their tireless efforts and innovative methods of teaching the laws to our candidates.

Special thank you to my fellow WICUA lecturers for their yeoman service at ensuring the success of our future WICUA umpires.

Respectfully

Clyde Cumberbatch

2015 Oral & Practical Examination Results

From: Mr. Clyde Cumberbatch
Chairman, Training & Examination Committee

Subject: 2015 Oral & Practical Examination Results

For your information the 2015 Oral & Practical Examination held on November 29th 2015 at the various Countries. This year, forty three (43) candidates took the examination and 98% of the candidates were successful. These results are encouraging and illustrates that the profession is attracting persons who understand the spirit of the game cricket. As professionals we must stand for fairness, respect and integrity. 
Congratulations to all successful candidates. To those who were unsuccessful you must review the laws of the game and ask your trainers for further guidance and clarity on the laws. This year’s highest mark of 97% was attained by RAJESH BABUJALLI of the United States of America closely followed in second place was MAURICE GREEN from Jamaica with 95.6%. 
You must keep revising the laws and performing your best on the field of play.
To the Training Committee members, WICUA Secretary and Assistant Secretary who participated in this exercise let me say thank you. It was another delighted year and I do look forward to the continued support from all members. 

Regards,
Clyde Cumberbatch

WICUA FINAL WRITTEN EXAMINATION RESULTS 2014

CHAIRMAN TRAINING & EXAMINATION REMARKS

This year forty three (43) candidates wrote the WICUA 2014 Final Written examination, 98% or forty two candidates pass the examinations.  The 2014 WICUA top candidate is BERNADETTE REID of Jamaica, her score was 98%, and the second highest mark came from RAJESH BABU-JALLI of USA who attained a score of 96% in the final written examination. Congratulations to all successful candidates.

Based on the above results, WICUA is well on its way at strengthening the resources of professional Umpires. Let me say to that you have just completed step 2 in the career path of a qualified umpire. Your next focus should be getting your mind and body in the game of play, standing behind the wicket is not an easy task but your trainers will ensure that you are prepared for your next stage in becoming a qualified WICUA umpire.

Let me urge on WICUA’s unsuccessful candidate, this is not the end, go back review the laws ask your lecturer/s for guidance, work with your fellow colleagues to understand the laws and come back at the next sitting and make a good attempt at the paper.

Special thank you to my fellow WICUA lecturers for your time spent at ensuring the success of our future WICUA umpires.

Respectfully

Clyde Cumberbatch
