The examination panel was impressed by Kristin’s professionalism and preparation. The result is a great reward for the time and effort she has put into her umpiring journey.
A milestone for South Australian rowing
Kristin is believed to be South Australia’s first female World Rowing umpire. It’s a proud milestone for our sport in this state.
Kristin started on the umpiring pathway here at home and has now reached the international level. Her journey shows how far officiating can take you.
Well done, Kristin, from all of us at Rowing SA. We look forward to celebrating with you when you’re home!
