Long serving ERCUSA members.

Or should that be long suffering! Who are our longest serving active colleagues?

By umpiring I mean being an official umpire not just players acting as unpires in games in which they are playing.

Here are some starters for you...

Ken Featherston

Mike Foster

Harry Jackson

Mike Jones

Roger Pugh

Malcolm Ripley

Keith Smith

All of these members have completed thirty years in the middle.

Who else should be added to the list? How long have they been donning the white coat?

I think that Ken Featherston began umpiring in 1966, Mike Foster in 1955 and Roger in 1972. Malcolm Ripley tells me that he first umpired in 1962. Mike Jones began in 1980. Harry Jackson began umpiring in the late 1950s and Keith Smith in 1983. Between them I think they have over 275 years of umpiring experience.
