Saturday`s bucket collection

There will be a bucket collection on Saturday at the game v Clyde for our DAFC Academy.

The last bucket collection for the Academy was at the Falkirk game and the funds raised helped pay for our U18s trip to Fleetwood Town over the Easter weekend. Our U18s ran out comfortable 5-1 winners against a highly rated English Academy. Offering experiences such as trips to play against clubs in England and further afield helps to attract the best players in our catchment area as we strive to make the Dunfermline Academy one of the best in the Club Academy Scotland programme.

Monies raised in Saturday’s bucket collection will help offer similar opportunities to other squads in the Academy as we look to not only further player development, but also raise the profile of the Academy.

In recognition of the fact that many fans do not carry cash in these post Covid times, there will be a QR code on the buckets held by our U13s players so that fans can still contribute should they not have cash to hand.

Your support in what we are trying to achieve is and will ever be greatly appreciated.
