Coaching

Coaching and training at Maddies will be a key focal area for 2020.

Maddies Netball Club provides umpires each Saturday for Junior year 2 and year 3 teams and all Intermediate and Senior teams.

​

Where available, badged umpires will be allocated for Div 1 games in the Senior and Intermediate grades. This depends on the availability of qualified umpires and the number of teams in Division 1 Inters and Seniors.

​

TNA provides Umpire Information sessions throughout the season. The TNA Umpires Coordinator allocates umpires from a pool of Junior Rep players from Under 12's to U 15's each Saturday to umpire Grades 4, 5 and 6 in the Junior Competition.

​

The Maddies Umpires Coordinator allocates umpires to all Maddies teams participating in the Inters and Senior competitions.

​

Our umpires are paid for each game during the season on a scale set by the committee and is dependent on experience and qualifications.

​

Becoming an umpire is easy; a Level One umpires course is available on line as a cost of $25 which Maddies will reimburse if you complete the course and present the club with your certificate. This course can be found on the Netball ACT website.

​

At Maddies we mentor our umpires regardless of age and our umpires are strongly encouraged to sit the on-line theory exam, which can be accessed from the Netball Australia Website. This exam along with an assessed, low pressure practical umpiring session or game will get you to a National C Badge qualification.
