There’s just 7 days to go until Club Doncaster Foundation host their Community Day on Saturday 23rd March. 

In a bumper packed Saturday, Doncaster Rovers will be taking on Forest Green Rovers at the Eco-Power Stadium, followed by Doncaster Rovers Belles fixture against Chester-Le-Street Town. 

There will be a range of activities available in and around the footprint of the stadium allowing fans to gain an insight into what the Foundation has to offer within the local community and across the city.

The day will feature the following FREE activities, that will all be available from 1:30pm onwards:

• Climbing wall for children
• Youth Zone – sports activities
• Health checks for adults
• Smoothie bike challenge
• Club Doncaster Sports College Open Day/facility tour
• Military vehicle accompanying our Fit Forces participants
• Food and clothing bank donation point for fans wishing to support local people

Specific locations for each of these activities will be released during the countdown to the game next week.

In addition to this activity, the day will also see the highly anticipated Junior Takeover Day event take place, giving children from partner schools the opportunity to shadow job roles of match day staff, getting a behind-the-scenes look of what takes place within a match day. 

Fan’s will also get the chance to witness the presentation of both the PFA Community Champion award and the Premier League Community Captain award, to individuals from in and around the club who continue to make significant impact within the local community.

Speaking of the upcoming day, John Davis, CEO of the Foundation said: “The Community Day gives us an opportunity to shine a light on the fantastic work that happens across Doncaster on every day of the week, 365 days a year.

“We get significant support from the owners, to Grant and Cliff and the first team squad and it makes a huge difference to our ability to improve people’s lives across the city.

“We want fans to come down to the stadium early, meet our team, try the activities and learn more about the organisation itself and how everything we do, impacts individuals on a regular basis.

“We look forward to welcoming you on the day!”

Following the end of the Rovers match, the activities will also feature in and around the stadium during the pre-match build up for the Belles fixture v Chester-Le-Street.
