MANAGEMENT TEAM – MARC WHITE
After founding the club with a group of mates in the Crawley and District League in 1999, Marc White’s journey with Dorking Wanderers has
been nothing short of astonishing since.
Under White’s guidance, Wanderers switched to the West Sussex League which they enjoyed a meteoric rise through before eventually reaching the Isthmian League Premier Division, which they won in the 2018-19 campaign to earn promotion to National League South.
Two years later, they reached the National League after defeating Ebbsfleet United to win the National League South Play-offs. The
Wanderers since retained their National League status for two years prior to their first ever relegation in 2023-24.
PLAYER PROFILE – FRANK VINCENT
A familiar face to the Plainmoor faithful from his loan spells with the Gulls in the 2018-19 and 2019-20 campaigns from AFC Bournemouth, Frank Vincent joined Wanderers in the summer of 2025.
Since his two loan stints with United, Vincent appeared in the EFL for Scunthorpe United and has appeared in the National League for Notts County, Aldershot Town, Dagenham & Redbridge and Woking.

LAST MEETING
Last meeting: Tuesday 15th March 2025, Dorking Wanderers 0 Torquay United 1
United came out on top in the big NLS showdown on Saturday, as Jordan Dyer’s late winner saw The Gulls clinch a valuable win at Dorking. With both sides firmly entrenched in bids for National League South promotion, it was eventually Dyer’s goal that proved pivotal, as Paul Wotton’s side clinched an eye-catching double over their much-fancied hosts.
