RIP Vin Hobson
Permalink Closed

Vin Hobson passed away yesterday at home The Coroner will determine the cause of death.

As a mark of respect the DDCUA would like to observe a minute's silence before this weekend's games and wear black armbands.

We have lost a true friend, great umpire and terrific bloke.

The members of the DDCA executive were shocked to hear the news last night of the passing of one of our own.

Whilst Vin had only been on the executive for two seasons as the Umpires representative, he had left his mark on all of us as a truely good guy with a dry sense of humour, as well as being one of of top umpires.

To Vin's many friends throughout the DDCA fraternity and especially at Dandy West we say celebrate his life and remember the good times.

The DDCA will be calling for a minutes silence before each senior semi-final on Saturday with black arm bands being worn if possible as a mark of respect.

We have lost a good friend and it has affected us all.

Genuine legend of the competition and fantastic bloke. I'm still in shock, it's hard to comprehend that he's gone.
