Everyone has been touched in some way by the bushfire tragedy in recent months.

The 2019 Awards afternoon was held at Ikon Park for the second year in a row at the completion of the National Boundary and Goal umpires camp on Sunday 2 February.  106 members, life members and hall of fame umpires joined us for a celebration of the 2019 season.

AFL-LISTED umpires will take charge during matches in the NAB AFLW season for the first time in 2020.

In support of the Australian Red Cross Bushfire Fund, 12 AFL Boundary Umpires and 3 ex-VFL umpires teamed up together to run 21.1km last Sunday, raising $750 in the process.

The Eastern Football Netball League (EFNL) is pleased to announce the appointment of former VFL/AFL field umpire Peter Carey as Head of Umpiring.

Matthew was attracted to umpiring because he saw it as a way of having someone pay him to be fit, rather than the other way around, and so began his career as firstly a field umpire, then a goal umpire, with him reaching the AFL panel for season 2020.

As one of two new goal umpires to join the AFL list in Queensland, Jesse Baird is keen for season 2020 to start so that he can get out and strut his stuff on the big stage.

Congratulations to AFLUA Life Members Kevin Smith and Murray Williams who were presented with their annual stamp presentation at Windy Hill, Essendon on Thursday 28 November.
