Steve Dunn (referee)

Stephen W. Dunn is an English former FA Premier League football referee. He was born on 24 October 1957. He resides in his birthplace of Bristol, England with his wife.

Career

Steve Dunn started refereeing local matches in 1978.

He progressed through the Gloucestershire County League, the Western League and the Football Conference to become a linesman in the Football League in 1986.

His appointment to the Football League list of referees came in 1992, and in the same year he became one of the first of the new FIFA assistant referees.

Dunn's first ever Premiership match was on 23 August 1995, when Tottenham lost 1–0 at home to Aston Villa, the only goal coming from Ugo Ehiogu.

He reached the FIFA list of referees in 1997. Thus he became the first English official to achieve the "double" of the FIFA referees and FIFA assistants lists, a feat later matched by Steve Bennett, Graham Barber and Matt Messias. He completed six years at this level, stepping down at the age of 45 in 2002, although he continued refereeing as an over-age official in the 'domestic' competitions until 2005.

Steve Dunn (1990s first baseman)

Steven Robert Dunn (born April 18, 1970 in Champaign, Illinois) is a former Major League Baseball first baseman. He was drafted by the Minnesota Twins in the 4th round of the 1988 amateur draft, and played for the Twins in 1994 and 1995.

Dunn attended Robinson Secondary School in Fairfax, Virginia from 1984 to 1988 where he earned Washington Post All-Metropolitan Baseball honors in 1987 and 1988. Dunn was a top 10 Baseball America magazine prospect in 1988, but had committed to the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill prior to the 1988 amateur draft which resulted in his slide to the 4th round. After attending a Minnesota Twins game in which he took batting and fielding practice with the team prior to the game, Dunn rescinded his commitment to UNC and signed with Twins for a $100,000 signing bonus.

In nine minor league seasons (1988–1996) Dunn put up consistently good numbers each year, and had a total of 110 home runs, 587 runs batted in, and a .283 batting average. Both in 1994 and 1995 he hit over .300 for the Salt Lake Buzz of the Pacific Coast League, earning call-ups to Minnesota.
