The 2022 My Money House Umpire of the Year Award has been won by Rebecca Scanlon from the Mid South East Netball Association (MSENA).

Scanlon was selected for her ongoing commitment to creating development opportunities for umpires across MSENA and the Western Border Netball Association.

This year, she took on the role of Association Secretary, juggling her new commitment with making time to umpire at her home club of Tantanoola and across the association.

She has been instrumental in the development of junior and senior umpires by running clinics and liaising with Netball SA to run development courses with A badged umpires. 

After first achieving her C badge in 1999, Scanlon worked hard to obtain her B Badge in 2016 and has continued to develop her credentials ever since. 

She is a regular umpire at the Country Championships and is the MSENA Umpire Coordinator, organising umpires for the seven games per day of finals held over four weeks.

Scanlon’s win was announced at Netball SA’s Awards Gala on Friday night.
