THE Association of Cricket Umpires and Scorers is running an umpiring training course through the winter.
Organisers say that there has never been a more urgent need for more qualified men or women to officiate at games, with local leagues running short of umpires.
This 10-week course, to be held at Walkden Cricket Club, Harriet Street, Walkden, aims to help alleviate the problem in Bolton.
The course, which costs £20, will cover all the laws of the game and begins next Wednesday, at 7.15pm.
For more details, call Dave Heap on 01204 846926 or Fred Elmore on 01204 693922.
