First Grade Numbered Shirt Presentations 2023

The 2023 season has seen numbered Field Umpire shirts introduced to the First Grade Men's Competition for the first time.

The initial presentation of nine shirts to those umpires who officiated in Round 1 took place at the Season Launch event with further presentations made as required throughout the season.

As a salute to our history the presenters are all Life Members of the Association and we are looking to enshrine this tradition for all future Field Umpires on the occasion of their first appointment into First Grade for the season.
