Sent on behalf of Gordon Crawford.
Dear Members,
We are saddened to learn of the recent passing of Mr John Manzie. We wish to convey our sincere condolences to the whole Manzie family, in particular, John's daughter, Vikki Robertson, our own member and part of the management committee. This will undoubtedly be an extremely difficult time for those closest to John as they try to come to terms with his loss.
John Manzie was a stalwart of the youth football scene in Dundee and across Tayside. John had served on the board of the Scottish Youth FA since 2009, most recently as vice chairman. He was also match secretary for the DDYFA for many years, dedicating his time and effort to ensure that the young people of Dundee and the surrounding areas got to play the game of football they loved.
Could all members please note that there is to be a minute's celebration before the start of all DDYFA matches this Sunday.
Regards,
Gordon Crawford
President
