For some of the players running around today it may be the highlight of their career to play finals and hopefully win a premiership. It is a prestigious appointment to be selected for a final or grand final as an umpire as it is a reward for not only the hard work they put in on match day, training and recovery sessions throughout the year but shows great faith the coaching panel have in the umpires taking part on the big day.
 Under 14's Division 1 Grand Final Umpires (left to right) Julie Ford, Lachlan Wilkes, Hayden Burns, Joey Kozina, Darcy Webber, Jack Wurf, Connor Rockliff, Jacob Palmer and Marcus Briggs. I had the pleasure last weekend to go out to Modewarre and watch some of our up and coming Umpires on our Development list officiate in Junior Grand Finals. Even though it may have been a bit cold I had a fantastic day along with a large crowd in attendance.
