The South Metro Junior Football League hosted the annual Umpire Presentation Night on Wednesday the 2nd of September, celebrating the collective success of the TLC Healthcare SMJFL Umpire Academy in 2026, and recognising standout personal achievements.

We had the pleasure of hosting a panel with Simon Meredith, Peter Bailes and Rob O'Gorman - three current AFL umpires who began their careers in the SMJFL - as they shared insights into their journeys to officiating at the highest level.
