Despite only taking up umpiring just over six years ago Sarah has been going from strength to strength, she umpired the bronze medal match at Glasgow 2014 in front of a home crowd.

Not only did Sarah umpire the final, she was appointed for pool games, a quarter final and a semi-final. We want to congratulate her for her achievements and we couldn’t be prouder.
