Great turnout at 2023 Engagement Evening

Over 55 people were welcomed to The Blandford School for our 2023 Engagement Evening on Wednesday 22 November

We were delighted to welcome over 55 people to The Blandford School for our 2023 Engagement Evening on Wednesday 22 November.  Over 20 clubs were represented, along with match officials and officers from our Dorset leagues.

Roger Vaughan, CEO, led the evening with the support of the team of staff from Dorset FA. The team were able to share a variety of insights about our partnerships, the FA/Dorset FA Grassroots Programmes available, information about facility development, as well as give an overview of the range of projects we’re currently delivering to our football community. 

We also welcomed Dorset Referee, Paul Kirby, to share his experiences and journey to the World Deaf Football Championships this year.  

We were delighted to welcome Bob and Donovan from Dojo, our new partners on the evening, who shared what they have on offer to our clubs.
