News

Following the decision to null & void last season we are now beginning to see some direction from the FA regarding the re-start.

At the moment (since 1st June) Government/FA guidance says that you can now take part in football activity in groups of no more than 6, including the coach. Makes things challenging when you consider that we have two adult teams that regulary train.

Regardless, we are due to start an adapted preseason training schedule from the 1st week of July, bearing in mind social distancing restrictions and the uncertainty as to when that first game of the season will be. Currently we don't see a ball being kicked in competition PRIOR TO October 2020 !!!! - Long ting!!

We are pleased to announce the addition of Jorge Gallardo to the DGL1 Management Team. Jorge comes to us having managed London Tigers FC in the Spartan South Midlands League. He brings exposure to players, organisation, fresh ideas and support as we embark on the next phase of our journey.

In addition we can announce sponsorship from Bar&Co at Temple Pier where you can experience the feeling of having had a few, without actually having had a few such is the rocking from passing boats. A great second base for the club.

DGL2 is in the process of completing the Management team, announcements imminent with the league possibly starting even later than October!!

DGLVets has seen a good strong group built up and currently no additions to report.

One exciting possibility being worked on is at long last a Youth Team. Early stages of this plan but quite hopeful we can report something in the near future - fingers crossed.

Finally and as always we continue to beg for help.

We need..........

- a Match Day Secretary (even if you can only do home games)
- Physio - always a tough one to fill.

- Sponsors. We have a big reach and constantly featured in the mainstream media, probably more than any other team in the Combined Counties League. Some great packages to help get awareness back to your businesses following the COVID-19 downtime - We can also help you so get in touch, let's help each other.
