Umpire4Fun Program

Become an Umpire4Fun Umpire!

AFL Queensland Umpire4Fun program involves all Umpire training, education, support and ongoing development for our Queensland club based Umpires officiating U8’s – U11 Girls fixtures across the Footy4Fun season. Club Umpires must be 12 or above in the year they register in order to be a part of the program.

Tailored to meet the Umpires’ needs, Umpire4Fun provides:

– Initial and ongoing training through the year through on-field and off-field training sessions
– Content relative to experience – sessions broken into first year and second year
– Training sessions located close to your club to minimise travel requirements
– Session content aligned specifically to the fundamentals of umpiring, and the junior modified rules.
– Pathway opportunities for umpires to transition from Footy4Fun into Youth competitions at their own pace.

Umpires receive free of charge:

– An Umpiring uniform (paid for by club, subsidised by AFL Queensland – includes on-field shirt, shorts, socks, hat)
– An Umpiring handbook – outlining everything umpires need to know
– Match payments per game (rate set by the individual Club)

Umpires may also attend any of the AFL Queensland League Appointed Umpire training sessions throughout the year to assist in further developing their Umpiring.
