Accies\' Long-Serving Coaches Recognised with Special Award

To celebrate its 30th year of existence, the Sports Council for Glasgow created a one-off, special award to recognise the services of a very special kind of volunteer - those who have been around as long as it has!

Three Accies were recognised for their outstanding, long-term contribution to their respective sports:

  • Colin Dawson, the Cricket Section's long-serving junior convenor and treasurer and former WDJCU treasurer and coach;
  • Colin Atkinson, Cricket and Club committee member, recognised for his services to badminton;
  • Alasdair Graham, secretary of the rugby section, for his services to rugby.

Dobs' outstanding contribution to the section and the sport was also recognised by the club in 2008 with the inauguration of the "Dobbin Award" for outstanding junior cricketers at Accies.
