You will be appointed to matches within your local competition. Games are held at various times throughout the weekend,
so there are always plenty of opportunities to umpire.
You will be provided with training and one-on-one coaching; so you won’t be dropped in at the deep end!
GET PAID TO GET FIT
Umpiring is a great way to improve your’ fitness. Umpiring rates start in Queensland generally start at $25 for a 48-minute under game
and can reach $130 for a Senior Field Umpire.
