With only the GDFL and a handful of Colts games last weekend, you would have noticed a lot of our umpires running around across all games over the weekend. We had some of our experienced umpires running with 1st and 2nd year umpires to help develop their skills leading in to the later part of the season. It has been great to see some of our guys put their hand up to double or triple up on games to ensure we are helping our new umpires out to improve and learn when they are getting started.

16/6/2015

0 Comments

 
2015 has been the year for big milestones for our umpires. At the start of the year we celebrated Noel Hooper umpiring his 1400 match. Last weekend another of our Life Members Darren Baensch umpired his 600 game at Barwon Heads. Darren was able to talk a couple of past umpires and legends of the GFUL, Murray Fanning and Mark Bushfield out of retirement to run with him for the game.  This weekend another Life member, Peter Schilder will bring up game number 500. Both of these guys have given so much to the association with Darren being a past Field Umpires Assistant Coach and Peter helping out on the Board as well as our New Umpire Welcoming Program.
