School Holiday Camp - The 'Ahhhhh Game'
Local children are back at May and Bakers over half term, taking part in another Daggers Trust Multisport Fun Camp. The activities have been well supported by the Metropolitan Police Safer Neighbourhood Team, the Met Task Force, the London Fire Brigade and the Apprentices from Dagenham & Redbridge FC, the Daggers Trust coaches have been helping the children have fun, make friends, develop social skills, take exercise and change minds, attitudes, behaviour and lives.
Led by PCSO John Joseph, the Met's Premier League Kicks' Co-ordinator, the group competed in the 'Ahhhhh Game' Challenge on Tuesday. Watch how they got on.
Junior Daggers 2023-2024
The Club and the Trust are pleased to announce that a new and much improved ‘Junior Daggers Package’ is now available to purchase for our young fans under the age of 16.
ALL THIS FOR ONLY £15!
The package includes a wide variety of different items and opportunities for our junior members:
Each Junior member will receive a ‘Welcome Pack’ containing a Daggers tote bag, an autograph book, a pack of 4 button badges, a size 1 Daggers football, a Daggers sticker, a signed first team photograph and a membership card.
Twice a year, all of the Junior Daggers will be entered into a matchday Mascot draw. The first lucky winner out of the hat will be a mascot on 16th December, when we play Wealdstone. The second draw will take place towards the end of the season.
All of the Junior Daggers will form a Matchday Guard of Honour on Saturday 27th January when we play Kidderminster.
Additionally, all Junior Daggers will be invited on an exclusive tour of the ground, going behind the scenes, visiting the changing rooms and other facilities not normally seen by fans.
After one home fixture, there will be a chance for the Junior Daggers, with their parents, to meet the players in hospitality, collect autographs and take selfies.
Each Junior Daggers member will receive both a Christmas and birthday card signed by the First Team and their birthday will be announced in matchday programmes.
Junior Daggers will be able to use their membership card to obtain a 10% discount on club merchandise, plus reduced price match tickets and discounts on group bookings eg a birthday party for a Junior Dagger.
At the end of the season the Junior Daggers will vote for their own ‘Daggers Player of the Year’.
Lastly, each Junior Dagger will be given five free ticket vouchers so they can bring along a friend, or friends, to a game.
So much, for so little. Which young Daggers fans wouldn’t want to be a Junior Dagger?
