The conference was again a resounding success with over 570 coaches in attendance. Over 100 umpire coaches participated in the 2010 AFL National Umpire Coaching Conference which was being held in conjunction with the 2010 AFL National Coaching Conference. This was a significant step in bringing playing, coaching and umpiring together as integral parts of football rather than seeing them as separate entities. The conference was opened by SANFL Executive Commissioner Leigh Whicker. He was followed by an enthusiastic Mark Williams (Port Adelaide FC) who delivered the opening keynote address that analysed the ‘Journey to Modern Coaching’ followed by Michael Broadbridge (West Coast Eagles FC) who considered ‘Moving on From the Noughties’ and the possible trends for coaching in the future.

After two years of uncertainty, the council-owned cattle selling facility was saved from permanent closure after elected members backed a motion to keep the gates open conditional on the yards maintaining a yearly throughput of 8500.
