How the figures are counted
An appointment is one named person assigned to a field, boundary or goal role for one game. One MDO observation is counted for each named field umpire at that game. Entries such as “Driver”, “TBC” and “League Appointment” are not counted as people.
The current filter is All competitions. Competition groups may overlap, and selecting more than one includes matches from any selected group. Duplicate source rows are reconciled by game and person so they do not inflate the figures.
