What the charity exists to do
Dunfermline Rugby Football Club (SCIO) exists to advance public participation in rugby union football, improve health and wellbeing, provide recreational opportunities, and advance education through sport. We deliver these purposes by providing coaching, training, competitive and recreational rugby opportunities for children, young people, and adults of all abilities within our local community. We operate teams across a wide range of age groups and support the development of players, coaches, match officials, and volunteers. The charity manages and maintains facilities at McKane Park, ensuring safe and accessible opportunities for participation in sport and community activities. We work with schools, community organisations, and Scottish Rugby to increase participation, promote lifelong involvement in sport, encourage physical activity, and develop skills such as teamwork, leadership, discipline, and respect.
