This form is to be used ONLY by National Associations representatives.
You may nominate:
1. ONE International Umpire who has achieved Blue Badge status, or, alternatively, has attended a certified Advanced Umpire Training (AUT) course and passed the Advanced Rules Exam (Blue Badge in Progress); and
2. ONE International Umpire (White Badge) who has been active internationally for at least two years, but has not yet attended an AUT course. Any nominee in this category should be one of your best newer umpires, capable of achieving Blue Badge status within two years.
As it is ITTF policy to encourage female participation whenever possible, please encourage your female umpires seriously to consider applying for this prestigious assignment. As an incentive, if ONE of the umpires nominated in 1 or 2 above is female, you may also nominate ONE extra umpire in the Blue Badge or Blue Badge in Progress category.
Please fill one form for each of your nominations.
