This was my first international tournament as an umpire and the greatest umpiring experience so far. The Yonex Bulgarian international is a very good tournament for a young umpire to experience because of a great number of tough matches There is a lot of pressure from coaches and players (especially from Balkan countries) and a lot of good BE umpires you can learn from.
I was an umpire 13 times and a service judge 11 times. I umpired the WS final match in front of Poul-Erik Høyer Larsen, the olympic champion from Athens 2004 and Badminton Europe president. That was a great honour.
