Record-extending 8,000 Members

AberDNA is soaring to new heights with over 8,000 members now supporting the Football Operation from all around the world…

This achievement represents another milestone for the Dons in a year with record-breaking backing from the Red Army, which has led to four consecutive sell-outs at Pittodrie!

Commenting on the landmark, Manager Jimmy Thelin said “The players and the staff all appreciate the positive backing since we arrived here and we are building something really special here. Thank you, as always, for your continued support”

Youth Academy Successes

The contribution of AberDNA Members helps us to reach our goal of being the Best Developer of Young Talent in the Country.

Thanks to lifting the CAS Scotland Elite U18 League title last season the Young Dons earned themselves a spot at European Youth Football’s top table, qualifying for the UEFA Youth League.

Thoughts of Stuart Glennie, AFC Youth Academy Director:
“It was a great season for our U16s and U18s last season which gave us the opportunity to play in Europe this year. Without that AberDNA support, you don’t get these opportunities.

We feel we’ve got some of the best young players in the country. It’s about looking forward, playing in fantastic venues like this [Pancho Arénas], we want more of that. But first and foremost it’s about producing good young players that are going to go on and play in our first team. “
