The Round 3 clash this Saturday between Kilmore and Macedon sees RDFNL President Alan "Ollie" Matthews bring up another umpiring milestone. Ollie's career that started in 1986 has seen him umpire 1224 games, the Riddell Umpires Record. This week however, Ollie will walk on to the field to umpire his 500th senior game becoming only the second person at the Riddell Umpires to do so.
Ollie is a Life Member of the Riddell Umpires as well as the RDFL. He is the current RDFNL President and has also served as the President of the Riddell Umpires. Ollie has done a stint as the Goal Umpires Advisor between 2004-2009 and has umpired 8 senior RDFL Grand Finals between 1992 and 2003.
The Riddell Umpires would like to congratulate Ollie on what seems to be his one millionth milestone. We hope you have a great day and that we see many more milestones in the future.
