Manufactured by JAKO and featuring our new front-of-shirt sponsor ‘Exclusive Glazing’, the tops are now available to purchase in the club shop prior to our home friendlies with Colchester United (Saturday 27th July) and Millwall (Monday 29th July), or at Crabble reception throughout the week, with online sales now available at www.dafcdirect.com.

Our home strip will continue to be a white top with black shorts, with our second kit all blue and our third kit yellow with black shorts.
