COVID-19 Update regarding Umpiring
Due to current circumstances surrounding COVID-19, officials that were required for re-accreditation (including Markers, Measures, Umpires) will now have their accreditations extended for a further 12 months.
If you require an update to your accreditation for Umpiring, Marking or Measuring, please follow the below links. These will then be distributed to Presenter & Assessors around Victoria who will commence accreditation & re-accreditation of Umpires, Measurers & Markers in due course.
