The following other websites may be useful for umpires, scorers, and those interested in becoming a cricket official in future:
ECB ACO
The ECB Association of Cricket Officials (ACO) represents scorers and umpires for and on behalf of the national governing body, the England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB).
ECB ACO is the membership organisation responsible for the recruitment, training and development of all cricket officials.
ECB ACO has a separate board that works with the executive to run the association. They work at the national, regional and local county level to have a direct link with you as an individual member.
As well as providing a fun, rewarding way to engage with the sport, training as an official is a great way to support the health of the game. You don’t need any previous experience or qualifications – just a willingness to learn. Whatever level you aspire to, whatever pace you wish to learn at, the ECB ACO Education Programme has a pathway for you.

Middlesex Development League
The Middlesex Development League (MDL) aims to inspire young people to play the game competitively, and in the Spirit of Cricket.
The MDL was setup by Middlesex Cricket in 2012 to respond to the needs of clubs in relation to the ongoing development of our younger players. Namely: to bridge the gap between age group cricket and adult sides; to provide an additional platform for young players to express their abilities in a longer format of the game; and to integrate young players more effectively into an adult environment.
