If you as a player, parent or supporter of netball want to find a way to get involved this could be it. As the club grows, we need more umpires as for each team we put into a league or tournament we also have to provide an umpire.

You can take the "Into Officiating" course once you are 14 years old and all Beginner Umpires follow practical mentoring sessions and start to umpire junior matches.

Following on form this, once you have some basic experience, the "Towards C" course helps you to gain confidence in your umpiring and knowledge as well as preparing you for the first qualification of "C Award" umpire.

Once you are umpiring competently, you even get paid!
