Coaching notes for all Boundary Umpires

Posted 27/3/19

Boundary umpiring is a great way to keep fit and be involved in a great game, without needing to know all the rules like a field umpire. All levels of fitness are welcome and we as coaches endeavour to look after each umpires needs.

The main focus of the Boundary Coaching Staff is to help each umpire aspire to be the best that they can be. Whether it is being a top senior level umpire, an umpire happy to do U/19 level and/or help new umpires or an umpire wanting to push for state league selection.

We as a group have a great diversity of people; there are some top state level athletes (middle distance runners), players (junior level) who umpire on Saturday’s  and play on Sunday’s along with those who just want to be a part of our game.

To any athlete who runs middle distance or greater, this is a great way to keep your base fitness level or even increase it. Running technique is no different on the footy field as it is on the track. Another advantage to umpiring is the way it builds self-confidence. I have seen young quiet, reserved umpires become leaders of the group and strong game day decision makers. Along with the benefits of other life skills,  it is great to see people grow and develop no matter who they are.

So come and give umpiring a go, you have nothing to lose but plenty to gain.
