The evening is designed to sell the benefits to clubs to work with their club referees to get them FA qualified and receive the DCFA referee support package. It will be an informal evening and questions will be encouraged.

We would envisage that the club would bring along any interested/potential new recruits and especially those club volunteers who are detailed to work/support them.

Clubs are encouraged to attain the FA Charter Standard Status

The Dorset Football League has attained Charter Standard Status and it is hightly recommended that our Clubs attain this recognised standard. This status raises the standard of grass roots football and it gives the Club and League a more professional image. Clubs can also apply for financial assistance once they have attained Charter Standard Status.

It is not difficult to obtain Charter Standard Status and around 70% of Dorset Football League Clubs have achieved this. The League's aim to get the majority of Clubs approved by the end of this season.

We are pleased with the recent progress with several clubs including Upwey and Broadway, Handley, Piddlehinton Utd and Puddletown having applied for Chartered Standard status which will enable them to access significant financial help. Congratulations to those clubs.
