Neil Bainton cricket umpire retires
By: tomp Date: November 30, 2025, 12:30 pm

Just seen on social media that long serving ECB umpire Neil
Bainton has retired to take up a new role as ECB professional
umpires manager.
Here is the link for the job that was advertised:

Looks like it will be to oversee the appointments, progression,
coaching, assessing and pathways of umpires in both the men�s
and women�s game.

I�ve known Neil for nearly 40 years and seen his progression
from club umpire to first class umpire. Having seen him just
recently, I can confirm that he is to oversee the professional
umpires panel relating to development and appointments.
Considering his non first class playing background, Neil has had
a superb career on field and was held in high regard by his
fellow officials and players alike.
I�m sure that he will take on the next stage of his life with
the same professionalism and dedication he has shown hitherto.

Met him a couple of times a few years ago when he was umpiring
with the late Jeremy Lloyds, a very friendly guy with a great
passion for the game of cricket, i wish him every success in his
future role.
