The meeting commenced at about 10.45 am and concluded about 4.33pm. A minute silence was observed for persons who were associated with the fraternity and who have passed away recently. Page 2 I was given the opportunity to introduce myself. During my introduction I made mention of the invaluable support that WICB has given to WICUA over the years. I referred to the thinking of the master and servant syndrome, I told the meeting that WICB was a good master. I made it clear that whatever assistance we may seek from the WICB we intend to earn it, so that we are not seen as ‘beggars’ if you may. That programmes, achievements, frank and meaningful deliberations will be brought to the fore. In response, the chairman, who was quite articulate and effective in his management of the meeting, he said among other things, that the master and servant era has been viewed as colonial. He sees both entities as partners.

  • In the Early Years, All Matters Pertaining to Cricket Umpiring
    THE WEST INDIES CRICKET UMPIRES’ASSOCIATION 1962 – 2012 – VIVIAN JOHNSON & JOHNNY GAYLE INTRODUCTION In the early years, all matters pertaining to cricket umpiring throughout the Caribbean were dealt with by the governing body of West Indies Cricket, the West Indies Cricket Board of Control through it various territorial affiliates. As the years passed, it became evident that a need existed for the establishment of a body whereby affairs of an umpiring nature would be properly addressed, which would ensure the development of umpiring, create a harmonious relationship among all participants of the game, promote the dignity of the office of umpiring, and generally to advocate in the interest of umpires. In order to accomplish these objectives, various territorial associations were established throughout the Caribbean. In 1946, Jamaica took the initiative with the blessing of the Jamaica Cricket Board of Control and formed the Jamaica Cricket Umpires’ Association, under the Presidency of Norman A.D. Tappin – J.P., Chartered Accountant, making the organization the second oldest umpiring Association in the world, surpassed only by the Victoria Association in Australia. This was followed by the formation of the Barbados Association in the early 1950’s, the Guyana Association and the Trinidad & Tobago Umpires Council in 1953. Interestingly, the British to whom the world is indebted for the invention of such a noble game did not form its Association of Cricket Umpires until March 1953. But there was no regional Association in existence in the West Indies which would bond the various organizations and their members together, and so broaden their input in the overall development of cricket as it relates to umpiring.
