The EDFL Umpires Association looks after more than 500 Field, Boundary and Goal Umpires who officiate each weekend in the Essendon District Football League. Umpires can be as young as 13, with no age limit! Not only do they get paid well to keep fit, they develop meaningful relationships alongside others that equip them with real life transferable skills. The EDFLUA act on behalf of members, to provide a safe and enjoyable environment as well as giving back to them throughout the year with many different initiatives.
