UMPIRES for this month’s National Netball Championships have been announced with Queensland pair Claire Kleinschmidt and Di Fawcett among those selected.
Kleinschmidt, who officiated at the Australian Netball Championships last year and is a member of the 2023 Suncorp Super Netball Talent and Development Squad, will be attending the championships for a second time.
It is the first time Fawcett, who was awarded her National A Umpiring badge last year, has officiated at a National Netball Championships.
“Congratulations to Claire Kleinschmidt and Di Fawcett on this fantastic opportunity,” Netball Queensland Head of Emerging Pathways Roselee Jencke said.
“The NNC provides an opportunity for developing athletes, coaches, umpires and officials to gain exposure to a high-performance competition environment.”
The 2023 National Netball Championships will be held in Darwin from 10-17 April.
