Last week SFJUA hosted its biggest ever End of Season Awards Evening, with 170+ umpires, family members, friends and special guests packing out South Fremantle Football Club.
The night couldn’t have gone ahead without Ivan, Nelson and the team at Benny's hosting and catering, Trophy Choice providing all awards, and the SFJUA Committee and Operations Department organising the night.
A special thank you to Darcy Rogan, who took up the task of photographing the night; as we can see, he did a fantastic job!
Congratulations to all those who received awards or were announced as grand final umpires!
