Umpires provide a vital part of the hockey game, allowing players to concentrate on their own game and letting the game flow. The 2022 season sees umpires in great demand in a variety of settings. Umpires receive reimbursement for their time, so it’s a good way to make some pocket money as well as contribute to the development of the game.
