Supporting the college

The objective of the OD Club is to maintain contact between past, present and future pupils of Dover College, through the fostering friendships amongst its members and the wider College community.

The Old Dovorian Club also supports a number of different Club groups and Club activities, which are there for the benefit of its members.

The Club fields a number of sports teams to play against the College throughout the year. This is in addition to hosting its annual drinks party in mid-January at the RAF Club in Piccadilly, as well as organising a number of other formal and informal gatherings throughout the year.

To help keep its members informed of what is happening at the College, as well as Club news, activities and members’ news, the Old Dovorian Club issues a news publication called the ‘Dovorian News’. This publication comes out in June and December and is emailed out to all of its members, as well as being published on the Club’s digital platforms.

As part of the Club’s communication strategy, the Club also runs a number of social media platforms, all of which are supported by direct emailing and the Club’s website. The purpose of this is to keep its members connected with each other, as well as to the College.
