Chair’s Update – Injury to Riley Malin

Today our club experienced one of the toughest moments we’ve faced in recent seasons. During a 50/50 challenge in our match against Bridport, Riley Malin suffered a horrendous injury to his left leg, resulting in a broken fibula and tibia. It was an incident no one ever wants to witness on a football pitch, and our thoughts are firmly with Riley and his family tonight.

On behalf of the entire club, I want to express our deep gratitude to Bridport’s committee, who showed exceptional generosity and sportsmanship by donating the full 50/50 prize draw winnings to Riley. We would also like to give a heartfelt thanks to the match referee, who generously donated his match fee. These gestures epitomise the best of our football community, and we are sincerely appreciative.

I could not be prouder of our own players. Their immediate response, care, and support for Riley was second to none—a reflection not only of their commitment to their teammate, but of their respect and friendship for him as a person. Moments like this show the true character of our squad.
There is no question that Riley will miss the remainder of the season, but the entire club stands firmly behind him as he begins his recovery journey. We wish him strength, healing, and all the very best in the weeks and months ahead.
