Fiona was Part of the First Female Umpire Crew

female-crewI am pleased to say that I was the plate umpire in what we believe was the first all female crew to umpire at a National Baseball Championships in Australia.

My base umpires were Janine Thompson from Australia and Sophi from Tawain.

Janine and I went on to do the Gold medal game with myself at the plate and Janine at first base.  Sophi was the plate umpire for the bronze medal game.
