Community
“We try and involve the public as much as possible and we give
the use of our stadium to various organisations and schools free of
charge. The club relies on the townspeople of Dalbeattie for their
support and financial backing with local business playing their
part.
We are not a wealthy club like some of the ones were are competing
against such as Spartans who have had millions spent on their
ground; Stirling University which has big backing and other clubs
in the cities where there is a much better chance of getting major
sponsorship. We are in a rural area made up of mainly smaller
businesses but they play their part like the committee who are
either working or semi-retired or retired.”
Youth Development
“Youth development is very important and we are in the process
at the moment of setting up a youth organisation which we hope
will be in place by the New Year and will be operating next spring.
