Sarah Wilson wins Scottish Women in Sport Official of the Year

Scotland & Great Britain umpire Sarah Wilson had further cause for celebration as she was crowned The National Official of the Year at the Scottish Women in Sport Awards last Friday.

Following a year in which she was selected among the 15 umpires to officiate at the 2016 Olympic Games in Rio, took charge of the Women’s EuroHockey Nations Championship final, was upgraded by the FIH to the World Panel, and featured in the Women’s European Club Cup final, the award is a fitting end to a great year.

Board member and technical official Barbara Morgan was also nominated in the same category, while Rachael Ewing-Day was nominated in the Coach of the Year category.
