Umpires Zone

All clubs in Japan have to provide umpires for games in each of the leagues they compete in. The Chiba Sharks have an umpiring coordinator who arranges the umpiring schedule and administers the umpiring activities for each league. Sharks members are expected to volunteer for umpiring duty if they have the necessary cricket knowledge and experience.
