Umpiring becomes consistent and effective when essential umpiring skills are applied on match day.
These resources have been developed to provide guidance to umpires on what common skills are required to facilitate a game of cricket. When applied across all the Australian Cricket States & Territories, umpires are able to develop a consistent skillset without hindering an individual’s ‘style’ or character they bring to umpiring.

For even more information, the guide has been broken into mini-videos. Each video is explained in more detail by a high performing umpire and includes video examples. You can watch 4 mini-videos below. Throughout the season, more videos will be released, but only available through your cricket ID. Stay tuned for more!
