Chairman's Welcome

The current 2022/23 season will mark my 24th year with this great club and during this time we have experienced much success on and off the pitch. Much investment has gone into Planters Park during this time including a new 4g training facility a couple of years ago and this summer will see new floodlights installed on the main pitch which will enable us to play mid week games. Further investment is also planned from the forthcoming Sub Regional Stadia Program, where we plan to build new state of the art changing facilities together with new community hub center. Our club is positioned at the heart of the community as evidenced in mid June when over 1200 enjoyed free hospitality in partnership with Magheralin Parish Church. We are actively seeking new volunteers for match days and general upkeep of the ground and we would be delighted to speak with you in person about this, we urge the local community to get involved in their local club. Hubert Watson

Dollingstown Enable Slighty Better Christmas For Local Families

Over the past few weeks all connected with Dollingstown Football Club have been trying to raise money for 2 families who urgently needed help with money for heating oil, clothes and food.

There is a family with a terminally ill child only 11 years old, they also have 2 other kids wee boys aged 8 and 10. Another wee family have 3 kids 2 girls aged 6 and 7 and a wee boy aged 9.

We are delighted to say that with Committee members, supporters, players and a few local care agencies we have completely outdone what we hoped for.

After yesterdays presentations to Barry Trainor, the families in question received fills of oil this morning, lots of presents for the kids which will be handed over for Christmas and with raising more than we expected 2 or 3 other families will also be helped.

A massive well done to all involved
