Dumfries and District Amateur Football League

The Dumfries and District Amateur Football League is committed to supporting amateur football in Dumfries and the surrounding districts. The league is currently made up of 10 member clubs who come from as far as Upper Nithsdale and Annandale as well as the town of Dumfries.

The league season for 2009/10 will consist of 16 league games, with each team playing each other home and away. There will be also 6 or 7 cup competitions depending on how fixtures are progressing. One cup, this year the League Cup, is played at the start of the season in a mini league format, the rest are straight knockout. These are sponsored each season by local business or individuals.

League History

Currently there are 10 member clubs who play in a single division. Most of the clubs have been members of the league for many years.
