Umpiring
FDNA provides a pathway for any umpire wishing to gain their umpires' badge. Most
junior umpires start umpiring on a Saturday in our junior competition and then progress
to our After School and night competitions. FDNA provides training for those umpires
who are keen to advance themselves, as well as offer courses for accreditation purposes.
