The Western Region Football League Umpires Association (WRFLUA) is the association responsible for working with the WRFL to provide umpires to all WRFL matches. The association is run by an executive and is run by umpires, for umpires. It acts as a representative body to uphold the interests of umpires, as well as a social, training, advocacy, support and management organisation for umpires in the western region.
The WRFL is proud of its historical and future commitment towards umpiring and supporting the relationship between umpires and the community, and was instrumental in establishing the first umpiring academy. The WRFL continues to work with the AFL to support community football and umpiring in the broader community.
Want to get in touch with the WRFL Umpires? Got a query, complaint or interested in becoming an umpire?
