The roles of the officials are among the most important in cricket, where umpiring requires a keen eye for detail and a reputation for fairness, and scoring requires great concentration.
New umpires and scorers are always required at recreational level, so if giving something back to cricket in this way appeals to you, this page has the details of courses that will allow you to learn either of those roles.
In Essex, we run a number of courses for umpires and scorers to help people understand more about the roles, in addition to the ECB-run courses that provide opportunities to move on to higher levels.
