Scottish umpire in the final of the Champions Trophy

There was Scottish representation at the final of the FIH Champions Trophy at the weekend with Sarah Wilson being appointed for the final between commonwealth champions Australia against number three in the world Argentina.

Sarah Wilson a member Grove Menziehill hockey club, umpired the final of the Champions Trophy out in Argentina where the home nation took the title in a penalty shootout.

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.
