History
Dundela Football Club was formed in 1895 from employees of a local dairy owned by the Agnew family and members of a local harriers' club.[1] Wilgar Park has been the home to the club since 1900. The park lies in the heartland of east Belfast, in a suburb named Strandtown. Its capacity is approximately 1,200. The venue is nicknamed "The Hen Run".
The club's greatest achievement to date came in April 1955, when it defeated Glenavon by three goals to nil at Windsor Park, Belfast in the final of the Irish Cup.[2] It was the first time a club form the Irish Alliance won the competition.[3]
The club's darkest hour occurred on 25 August 1995, when team captain, Michael Goddard died during a game at Stangmore Park, home of Dungannon Swifts, after being struck on the chest with the ball.[4]
Dundela's local rivals are Harland & Wolff Welders.[5]
