The Swansea City Football Club Disabled Supporters Association (SCFCDSA) was successfully launched in 2013.

It is now the recognised representative body of the disabled Swansea City FC supporters.

The SCFCDSA has several roles, one is on a social aspect of bringing together the disabled supporters into one group and this includes their family and friends.

Another is putting the views of members to Swansea City FC and other bodies, in the interests of improving facilities and policies that affect the disabled supporters.

It aims to develop through working with others, especially Level Playing Field (LPF) and use its membership of Level Playing Field to influence and make improvements on a wider scale for disabled supporters.

The DSA acknowledge Swansea City FC and the Swansea City Supporters Trust for the great help they provided in getting the SCFCDSA up and running and both are fully supportive of its creation. The Football Club also provide facilities for the monthly committee meetings.

The DSA idea was developed by the then Swansea City FC Disability Officer Ian James who is also an elected board member of the Swansea City Supporters Trust. Ian continues to help the DSA committee develop as an independent entity that represents the views of Swansea City FC Disabled Supporters.

The DSA is looking to build on what it already has and developing an even stronger relationship with Swansea City FC. All Swansea City disabled supporters are welcome to join; this includes their family, friends and PAs. This is very much an inclusive club, and it is up to its members to make it the best disabled supporters club in the country.

Members will be the lifeblood of the DSA and this is your opportunity to join.

The DSA’s own website is now fully up and running if you have any questions or queries, you can contact the DSA via email: info@swansdsa.org.uk
