NEAFL ARTICLE PREPARING FOR PERFORMANCE By JOHN FORRESTER Each week Field, Boundary and Goal umpires go out and officiate matches they are appointed to. How does this happen and what does an umpire do at NEAFL from one match to the other Umpires are required to be at their NEAFL match 90 minutes prior to schedule start time, where they will start to prepare for their match day. Once paperwork is organised, teams are met, pre-game discussion with their respective Coach and other officiating umpires has taken place; it’s onto the ground. They complete their after match paperwork including any reports or referrals, warm down, receive feedback from the match day umpires coach and like players begin for the next week. EACH UMPIRE RECEIVES A DVD OR DOWNLOAD COPY OF THEIR MATCH JUST COMPLETED SO THEY CAN GO HOME AND ANALYSE THEIR MATCH AND PROVIDE SELF ASSESSMENT. Appointments are released each Monday afternoon for the following weekend’s matches. The challenge with the NEAFL Panel is around half are split between Sydney and Canberra, so to help with the process a dedicated coaching website has been set up. The umpires then provide feedback with each other, where they give some points on the game to share with the whole umpiring group. They will receive detailed written and visual feedback on their performance from the Umpire Coach on each decision made in the game and various skills that are required to perform in the NEAFL. THERE ARE TWO ORGANISED TRAINING SESSIONS HELD EACH WEEK WHERE FITNESS AND SKILLS PRACTICE TAKES PLACE AT MANUKA OVAL. On Thursday nights the NEAFL Field Umpires Panel meets via teleconference and discusses vision and how they can improve for the coming match. Each umpire discipline has dedicated coaches who are out at every NEAFL match, to help with improving umpire performance, they themselves compile a detailed run sheet and then review every match on DVD. The coach then provides this information back to each umpire they observed from the weekend. This happens week in week out of the football season and every umpire strives to improve their individual and team performance in much the same way as the players. Umpiring is a great way to be involved in AFL or give back to the game if you so desire. UMPIRING IS ALWAYS LOOKING FOR MORE PEOPLE TO BE INVOLVED AND IS ACTIVELY RECRUITING FIELD UMPIRES; WE WELCOME DAD’S, MUM’S, BROTHERS, SISTERS, FORMER PLAYERS, FORMER UMPIRES OR ANYONE WITH AN INTEREST IN AFL.
