22.01.2022 It’s with a heavy heart that BMTA passes on the news of the passing of TFA Life Member, Lou Tompkins. There are not many experienced referees from BMTA and beyond that don’t owe part of their success to the mentorship and guidance of Lou. Lou will be sorely missed and BMTA offers its condolences to Lou’s family and friends. ... Rest In Peace Lou
