Blume becomes the 43rd umpire in NCCUA history to do so. His tally includes 76 Black Diamond Cup matches (64 Field, 12 boundary) and 1 BDC Grand Final in 2016.
He is becoming a very well-respected umpire within the Association and the BDAFL in general. His ability to remain composed under pressure has greatly improved over his formative years of field umpiring and he is now regarded as one of the senior umpires of the group.
With a terrific dedication and focus to his craft, especially his bouncing, Blume will no doubt be one of the umpires to watch in Season 2017 when the finals draw closer.
The NCCUA wishes Stephen all the very best of luck on Saturday.
