6v6 Umpiring Courses

Our 6v6 Umpiring courses are fun, and engaging, and cover the fundamentals of umpiring, including theory and practical.

The theory session covers the rules and explains the role of an umpire on game day.

The Practical session is to reinforce the learning of the rules in real time to consolidate understanding.

This module is the minimum level recommended for umpiring Year 5-6.

Junior umpires in Year 7&8 are encouraged to attend, as well as Year 9+ umpires who are umpiring Year 5-6 matches.
