The Umpire Development Pathway has been created to provide Umpires, Umpire Coaches, and administrators a clearly defined pathway from non-elite participation, through to pre-elite talent development and on to elite high performance. It is a true sport-for-all framework that faciltiates lifelong engagement in Australian Rules Football umpiring. 

Umpiring WA welcomes and supports the opportunity for every Umpire across the state to realise their ambitions in the pathway.

For a Summary of the Pathway in WA please see the WAFC Umpire Development Pathway Summary Handbook 2024.

To access the Elite Umpiring Capabilities please see the Elite Umpiring Profile.
