Calling on all players turning 12 years old or older this year,
How would you like to assist your club and get paid for it, and in doing so learn great life skills?
We have a number of Junior Football umpiring positions available for the 2015 season which we invite you to apply for. You don’t need to have experience as we will train you. You will be umpiring the modified games played by the under 8’s through to under 11’s. You don’t need to have elite fitness as these games are played on smaller modified ovals and with quarters lasting only 10 minutes each.
Your benefits
There are many great benefits undertaking a role of umpiring
- Earn great pocket money
- Keep fit
- Make the game you love your first paying casual job
- Increase your confidence

- The experience will be good for your resume when you want to apply for other future casual and part time jobs
- It maybe your first step to a possible career in AFL Umpiring (The elite AFL Field Umpires you see on TV earn from $80,000 – $150,000 per season; Boundary and Goal Umpires earn approximately $60,000)
Match Payments
Umpires will earn $15 for under 8’s per match, $20 for under 9’s/10’s, and $25 per match for U11’s.
