COVID-19 Advice 

Updated: 13/11/2020
The WHUA, working with Hockey Wales, have issued COVID-19 guidance for umpires.  This document can be downloaded below.  We strongly advice that you read this ahead of any umpiring activity you undertake.

Please note that if you are currently living in a County that has had additional lockdown procedures applied to it then you should not be travelling outside of that county to officiate.
​
We have also been working with Hockey Wales to update the disciplinary (red card and MMO) regulations to ensure that any COVID-19 related incidents are sanctioned appropriately.  These can be also be downloaded below along with an updated reporting form.  The full HW Disciplinary regulations can be found on the Downloads page.
​
Any questions should be directed to umpires@hockeywales.org.uk

UPDATE: 13/11/202
With Hockey Wales having given clubs the go ahead to play friendlies we have provided some FAQ's below which cover the common questions we have been asked.

FAQ's

Question
Answer
Are umpires and officials included in the 30 allowed participants.
Yes, umpires are included in the 30 allowed participants so in effect a game can have 28 players + 2 umpires.  If a team has coaches then the number of players is further reduced. 
Can an umpire umpire one game and then play the following game at the same venue (or vice versa)
Yes, as long as they are not included in number of 30 as a player or umpire and if for over 18's
Can an umpire umpire a game at one venue and then travel to play and or umpire at a second venue
Yes, as long as they are not included in number of 30 as a player or umpire and if for over 18's
Can an part qualified umpire be assessed and what effect does that have on numbers. 
Yes assessments can take place as umpire assessors are EXEMPT from the number of 30.
