If you are a first time umpire or just want to refresh yourself with the rules come along to our "First Steps to Umpiring" Classes which are a great way to learn basic umpiring along with people of the same umpiring level as yourself. Where and what part of the court do I Umpire from?Games are umpired by two umpires who stand on opposite sides of the court (outside the court lines). Always umpire "to your right" from the centre circle. You are also umpiring the entire sideline of the court on your side of the court. You run with the play of the ball right down to "your" goal end. Who blows the whistle for a Centre Pass?The whistle is blown for each centre pass by the umpire who had a goal scored in "their" goal end prior to the next centre pass. How do I know who has the Centre pass?The easiest way to remember who has the centre pass is to hold your whistle (or a hair tie around your wrist) in the hand of the side that has the next centre pass, i.e.: hold your whistle in your right hand if the team on "your" side of the court has the next centre pass and vice versa. What are the penalties for infridgements?The penalties for infringements are:
A Free pass is awarded for:
Where and who takes a Free Pass:
A Penalty Pass is awarded for:
Where and who takes a Penalty Pass:
Penalty Pass or Shot:If contact or obstruction by the defenders occurs in the goal circle, a penalty pass or shot is awarded where the infringer was standing
