All teams must supply a Coach, Manager AND Umpire to take the court at Downey Park. We ask the
parents of our Net Set Go teams to volunteer in these positions as we are a community volunteer run
club. This year we will be offering TWO options for umpires of our Net Set Go teams.
OPTION 1:
- 1-3 parents can share the role of team umpire- to rotate each week as suits these volunteers
- These volunteer umpire(s) qualify for the $100 volunteer levy rebate
- It is a Downey Park Netball Association requirement all umpires attend a Net Set Go Umpiring Workshop
(please see date below) to learn the rules of non-competitive netball- Returning Net Set Go umpires do
not need to attend.
- These volunteer umpires will be provided support by the club in the first few games
OPTION 2:
- Teams can elect to source an appropriate umpire that meets the outlined criteria:
o Be a Junior Association Badge Qualified Umpire
o Be 15 years of age or older
o Must have the confidence to control the game and any poor sideline behaviour
o Team manager is responsible for the safety of the team umpire and be supportive during any
incidents
o The team is responsible for financial compensation to the umpire
▪ The Junior Badge Umpire rate is $15 per game
▪ The C Badge Umpire rate is $20 per game
