Spotlight On… Melbourn Dynamos FC

Melbourn Dynamos FC

Founded in 2003 Melbourn Dynamos FC is a thriving community based football club which aspires to offer boys and girls the opportunity to play regular football regardless of their experience or ability from the age of three.

MDFC was awarded Charter Standard status in 2009 and all of our coaches are DBS checked and qualified to a minimum Level 1.
This season we currently have more than 200 players in 16 teams at the Club and this includes our youngest players – the Dynamites. There are both mixed and girls only sessions for players between 3 – 6 years each Saturday morning.

We regularly host tournaments on behalf of the Royston Crow Youth Football League and these raise funds for our Club and our nominated charity, Tom’s Trust www.tomstrust.org.uk.

We are a very successful club which works closely with all our partners, especially Melbourn Village College (MVC) and the Parish Council.

MDFC is committed in supporting the health and wellbeing of the whole community and we are very pleased to announce that, in partnership with MVC and working closely alongside Cambridgeshire FA and the Football Foundation, we are at the forefront of striving to achieve the installation of a full size astro turf facility at MVC. Initial discussions have been very positive and the next step is to evidence the use of the facility by 42 teams.

If your Club, team or business would be interested in using this quality facility then please contact Blake Carrington NOW on chairman.mdfc@gmail.com or find us on our new facebook ‘melbourn dynamos community’. If we can’t evidence the projected use then we won’t secure the funding to build it so please get in touch!

District Councillor Jose Hales supports the concept of this vision, ‘Melbourn Dynamos offers a great platform for young people in Melbourn and the surrounding areas and I know that the members really do enjoy being part of the Club which promotes a healthy lifestyle and well-being in a great supportive environment that allows them to excel, whatever their level of ability. I am keen to support the Club with some very ambitious plans for the future geared at greatly enhancing the football facilities for the local and wider community, including local companies and organisations’.

The Club are always keen to hear from new players and volunteers so please contact us via our Secretary,
