UMPIRING IMAGES FOR PROMOTIONAL AND TRAINING RESOURCES HOME HOCKEY HOME
We don't just focus on players in our photography but also recognise , appreciate and actively record , promote , in high quality professional standard images, the vital contribution made by field hockey umpires at all levels of the game to the playing experience. We aim both to support umpire development work, make available cost effective images either from extensive stock archives or through commissioned work on site to help promote the role, encourage recruitment , help illustrate / celebrate good practice, and offer materials for training presentations, website use and print media use. Click on the underlined links to visit sample albums. The images in all these albums include portraits, umpires in action and images illustrating what we think is great signalling both in single portrait format but also in the context of games , and appropriate body language, positioning and the tools of the trade.
Please note , we are currently undergoing a major revamp of the johncoxon.com website and thus, at present , are unable to present sample images / albums in any other format other than via the old / current Shopping Cart context so please email me for details of special discounts. All the featured umpiring images are available as digital image files for editorial / media and commercial use on request but we also welcome commissions to cover events on site or work to your brief.
