THE Board of Dumbarton FC has recently concluded a review of the youth structure at the club, in particular our under-20s development squad.
With decreasing external funding and the significant resources required to comply with development league participation, Dumbarton FC has concluded that the financenecessary to operate a 20s team, which falls under the first team budget, cannot be sustained.
As a result, the club will not participate in the SPFL’s development league next season.
The current squad was given the news earlier this evening.
The Board would like to thank the football staff and players who have supported our development squad through the years.
