DOBWALLS FC
Dobwalls FC celebrated its centenary last year having formed in 1922 as
original members of Liskeard and District Football League. Its Lantoom Park
ground has seen steady development over that time from one pitch on a
farming field to the current two pitches, changing rooms and clubhouse.
Four years ago there was a serious fire but the local community gathered
round and the facilities were quickly restored. The club has now acquired
another adjacent field and planning permission for several more pitches,
primarily for junior football teams.
