Round 5 VAFA Women’s Rising Star:
The VAFA congratulates Steph Tredwell from Fitzroy Football Club, who has been nominated as the Round 5 VAFA Women’s Rising Star. Steph made an immediate impact in her VAFA debut
The VAFA and the YJFL are pleased to announce an extension to the umpire growth partnership for 2024. This agreement ensures both leagues collaborate on key umpire matters including education, pathways, training and recruitment.
A key component of this partnership is a satellite training venue at Bulleen Park, Bulleen. Every Monday night from the 6th of May starting at 6pm, VAFA umpires will have the option to train with YJFL umpires.
The partnership activities will also see both leagues working together to foster clear pathways between both leagues in umpiring, developing talented umpires in the region and improving umpire recruitment, retention and participation in both regions. A clear pathway has now been created for YJFL umpires to transition to senior football in the VAFA competition once they have finished their junior umpiring career.
VAFA and YJFL umpires are encouraged to officiate in both competitions, this will ease the pressure on clubs with increased coverage levels on junior and senior games.
Both leagues look forward to working together to achieve positive umpiring outcomes during the 2024 season.
