The Demons District Football Umpires Association (DDFUA) is an incorporated association based in the southeast metropolitan area of Western Australia. It is home to all field umpires officiating the game of AFL football in the Demons District. The Demons District is under the jurisdiction of the Perth Football Development Council and covers an area extending from South Perth to Gosnells.
The Association works towards creating an environment where its members can learn the skills of umpiring; develop as a person and umpire; and receive the necessary support to achieve their goals. The Association also attempts to create an enjoyable setting where the members can enjoy each other's company and the umpiring experience.
The DDFUA is led by a hard-working committee, which sets the strategic direction for the Association and fosters a team spirit between the umpires. The Committee also works with the Operations Department in ensuring that umpiring in the District is of the highest standard possible. The Operations Department controls all aspects relating to umpiring, including the education and development of umpires.
The DDFUA's members come from all walks of life and are of varied age and background. However, they are all united in their love of the game of AFL football and their support of grass-roots football. They continue to strive to improve themselves as umpires and people, in order to help create an environment where junior footballers can improve their skills and enjoy the sport.
