The process is about bringing men together who have been in similar situations, to help each other on a peer to peer basis, sharing how they have dealt with various situations through lived experiences. No matter how big or small your problem feels, we are here to support each other. The 5 questions that are asked each week are designed not only to encourage men to talk, but to start to focus on the positives and on strategies to keep moving forward.

The following have significant interests in the shareholdings of the company: Richard Tims (7.91%), James Healey (6.13%) and Jeremy Levine (50.7%).
The Daniel Wilkinson Foundation is a charity set up in memory of Daniel Wilkinson who died in 2016 aged 24, while playing the game he loved, from an underlying heart condition called Arrhythmogenic Right Ventricular Cardiomyopathy (ARVC).
Dan played football from an early age and joined Hull City AFC when he was 10, earning a professional contract aged 18. Loughborough University followed where he completed a degree in Accounting and Financial Management while playing non-league football. He was an athlete who enjoyed the gym and took his health and nutrition very seriously. He lived life to the full and had so much ahead of him.
Other than feeling light-headed on a few occasions in the month before he died, he had no symptoms!
SUDDEN CARDIAC DEATH IN THE YOUNG (SCD)
SCD is the leading cause of death in young athletes during sport and the majority of deaths occur with NO SYMPTOMS or family history.
ARVC can be found in one in every 1,000 to 5,000 young adults - IF IT IS LOOKED FOR.
Warning signs may include light-headedness, fainting, palpitations, swollen legs, breathlessness.
Every week in the UK, 12 apparently fit and healthy young people (aged 35 and under) die from previously undiagnosed heart conditions.
In Italy, where screening is mandatory for all young people engaged in organised sport, they have reduced the incidence of young sudden cardiac death by 89%.
OUR MISSION
The Daniel Wilkinson Foundation has been set up to raise awareness of SCD and to provide funding towards heart screening, defibrillators and CPR/defibrillator training primarily for grass-roots sporting teams.
Tragedies can be prevented through cardiac screening. It is vital that young people are identified and treated.
Words from the Gaffer
Over the past few weeks, it has been incredibly rewarding to get to know the lads better, both on and off the pitch. Spending more time with the team has allowed me to see not only their individual qualities but also how they come together as a group. Their commitment to improving every week is clear, and it’s been great to see them build a stronger understanding of each other’s strengths. This kind of camaraderie and team spirit is vital for the challenges ahead, and I’m proud of the way the squad is coming together.
The results so far have been encouraging, with the team showing tremendous determination and character. Our performance against Emley, a team sitting near the top of the table, highlighted our resilience and ability to compete with strong opposition. It was a real statement to go toe-to-toe with them and come away with something positive. Progressing through the Senior Cup with a commanding victory over Dearne was another significant step for the squad. It wasn’t just the result but the manner in which the team played— disciplined, focused, and clinical—that stood out.
Now, our focus turns to Pontefract, a side that looks strong on paper and will undoubtedly pose a tough challenge. The lads have been working hard in training, and we’ve been sharpening up on areas that can make the difference in a game like this. Wednesday’s result has given us momentum, and the aim is to build on that and carry forward the positives. Pontefract is a team that demands respect, but we’re approaching the game with confidence and a clear game plan to deliver another strong performance.
Lastly, I want to take a moment to thank the fans for their unwavering support. Whether at home or away, your presence has been a massive boost for the team, and we’re all incredibly grateful. Your encouragement drives the lads on, and we hope to repay that faith by continuing to improve and picking up more points in the league. Please keep backing us; together, we can make a real impact and move forward as a club.
History of The World’s First
Early Football.
Versions of football evolved in many early civilisations, example of these can be found in ancient China, Greece and Rome. In England the original games were played between villages in fields and streets. This ‘Mob Football’ involved hundreds of players and was little more than prolonged and violent street battles.
In the 19th century a more refined version of the game grew in popularity within the public schools and universities, each playing to their own sets of rules.
The Birth of Sheffield Foot Ball Club.
During the 1850s the enthusiasm and influence of ex-public school and university students spread the popularity of the game around Sheffield. In the summer of 1857 William Prest and Nathaniel Creswick agreed that the game would be a splendid candidate for organised sport during the winter months. The pair wrote
to the Public Schools for information, regarding their varying rules, with the aim of drawing up a set of laws embodying the best points from each. On October 24th, 1857, the world’s first football club was born in a greenhouse. Among the first rules drawn up were laws asserting that “no hacking or tripping up is fair under any circumstances”, “no player may be held or pulled over” and “it is not lawful to take the ball off the ground [using hands]”. Upon the formation of the Football Association in 1863, Sheffield Club’s insistence on these laws helped lead the evolution of the game we recognise globally today. Heading, crossbars, corner kicks, free-kicks for fouls, throw-ins, a half-time change of ends and floodlit matches can all be traced to the innovators of Sheffield F.C.
Early Years
Initially early matches, such as Married men v Unmarried, were played between club members. Records also show games against local army sides. Following victory over the 58th
Army Regiment in 1860 a local report stated that, “most of the officers were adepts at the game, having, in their younger days, played in the public school matches, and the victory of the civilians was quite unexpected.” Following the birth of Hallam F.C., the world’s first inter-club game took place on Boxing Day in 1860. The match “was conducted with good temper and in a friendly spirit”, concluding in a 2-0 win for Sheffield. For several years all matches were played locally, against a rising number of new sides, before the first ‘out of town’ match was played in Nottinghamshire in 1865. In 1866 Sheffield became the first non- London side to play under FA Laws when they met London at Battersea Park. The FA Cup was founded in 1871 and in its third season Sheffield became the first northern side to take part and the first nonLondon side to win a tie. They succeeded in reaching the quarter finals in this and two further seasons also, 1876 and 1878, the club’s support helping the FA Cup nearly treble in size
and become a nationwide competition. 1872 saw the first international game, between England and Scotland in Glasgow, with Sheffield’s Charles Clegg playing for the England side. Clegg would later go on to be Chairman, and President, of the FA and receive a knighthood for his services to the game. From the 1880s onwards the rise of professionalism and Sheffield Club’s firm insistence on retaining their amateur status saw them overtaken and overshadowed by other sides in the area. During these years the very survival of the club owed much to the leadership of former players Harry Chambers and Harry Broughton Willey. It wasn’t all doom and gloom though! In fact Sheffield enjoyed possibly their greatest hour in 1904 when they won the Amateur Cup, beating Ealing 3-1 at Valley Parade, Bradford.
YORKSHIRE LEAGUE
1949 brought admission to the Yorkshire League and a resurgence, which saw the side promoted to Division 1 in their third season and reach the League Cup final in 1953. In 1957 they celebrated their Centenary year and reached their first Sheffield & Hallamshire FA Cup final in 1962. After a period of yo-yoing between divisions the 1977 side were crowned Division
2 Champions and reached that season’s FA Vase final at Wembley. They established themselves as a top division side in the Yorkshire League, lifting the League Cup in 1978, before joining the newly founded Northern Counties East League in 1982.
NORTHERN COUNTIES LEAGUE
The Division 1 title was won in both 1989 and 1991 and a first Sheffield & Hallamshire FA Cup win came in 1994. In 2001 the club acquired a permanent ground, for the first time, when moving to its current home. After the turn of the century the side began to consistently challenge for promotion, also winning the League Cup and Sheffield & Hallamshire FA Cup twice apiece. The 2006/07 season ended with a 2nd place finish and promotion to the Northern Premier League.
NORTHERN PREMIER LEAGUE
Club made an instant impact in reaching the 2008 play-off final, narrowly losing only on penalties. That first season also saw games against Inter Milan and Ajax at Bramall Lane, as part of the 150th birthday celebrations. The side have reached the NPL play-offs a further 3 times in addition to lifting the Sheffield & Hallamshire FA Cup in 2008 and 2010.

Pontefract Collieries History
Pontefract's football history dates back to the 1890s, with a team known as Pontefract Garrison participating in the West Yorkshire League. In the late 1920s, Pontefract Borough made it to the Yorkshire League, but didn't complete the 1929–30 season. By 1935, Tanshelf Gems had become Pontefract United, dominating local football before World War II. After the war, Pontefract Collieries emerged, gaining success in the West Yorkshire League. In 1960, the Collieries name was revived when Pontefract United merged with a local youth team, and the club went on to win the Yorkshire League Division Three Championship in 1982.
The Colls were founding members of the Northern Counties East League (NCEL) following the merger of the Yorkshire and Midland Leagues. They quickly climbed the ranks, winning several promotions and the NCEL Division One (North) Championship. The 1980s saw the club's infrastructure
improve with new floodlights and facilities, leading to notable achievements, including winning the NCEL Floodlit Cup twice and reaching the West Riding County Cup Finals. However, after manager Ged Elliott's departure in the mid-1990s, the club experienced a decline, culminating in their first relegation in years. New management helped the team recover briefly, but consistent success was elusive.
The early 2000s were marked by fluctuating fortunes for the Colls, with frequent managerial changes and struggles on the field. Despite some success in youth development, the senior squad often failed to replicate these achievements, leading to relegation from the NCEL Premier Division.
In the mid-2000s, financial difficulties and off-field challenges further hampered the club's progress, although restructuring in the league system helped them avoid relegation on several occasions. By 2008, a new
committee and manager Simon Houghton revitalized the club, leading to steady improvements and a midtable finish in the 2009–10 season.
The 2010s brought a resurgence for Pontefract Collieries, with significant progress in the NCEL. The 2014–15 season saw the club achieve promotion to the NCEL Premier League after finishing as runners-up in Division 1. However, struggles in the Premier Division led to managerial changes and relegation back to Division One. The 2016–17 season was a turning point, with the club achieving promotion back to the NCEL Premier Division. The following season was even more successful, with the Colls winning the NCEL Premier Division title and securing promotion to the Evo-Stik League.
Pontefract's first season at Step Four in 2018–19 was a success, finishing as runnersup in the NPL Division One East. However, the following
seasons were disrupted by the coronavirus pandemic. In 2021–22, under manager Craig Rouse, the club made history by reaching the fourth qualifying round of the FA Cup and finished mid-table in the league after a strong recovery.
The 2022–23 season saw another strong start, with a good FA Cup run, but injuries and discipline issues led to a mid-table finish.
In the 2023–24 campaign, Pontefract achieved their second-highest league finish, ending in fourth place. The season was highlighted by the club's first-ever West Riding County Championship victory. With the departure of Craig Rouse, new manager Jimmy Williams took charge for the 2024–25 season, retaining much of the previous year's squad and aiming to build on the club's recent successes.
MATCH REPORT 1 4
DEARNE AND DISTRICT VS SHEFFIELD FC
Vill Powell grabbed his first win of his tenure as Sheffield FC manager on Wednesday night, as they progressed past a dogged Dearne and District side at a freezing Goldthorpe Welfare Ground, with the 4-1 win earning the World’s First a Quarter Final tie at Sandygate versus Hallam.
Dearne were lively in the opening minutes, but didn’t cause much problem for Edd Hall in the Sheffield goal, whilst at the other end of the pitch George Bristol was hardly bothered in the opening half hour.
On 33 minutes the hosts took a surprise lead, Jake Austin breaking clear on the left flank, before squaring the ball to Jake Phillis who took his time picking his spot to make it 1-0. Club responded calmly and clinically and on 40 minutes they were level, a Stephen Brogan corner picked out Brad Beatson’s head at the
back post, with the defender burying the ball through the mêlée.
The second half saw Club come out of the blocks in top gear, and inside two minutes they were ahead, as Jack Watson showed strength and tenacity on the right to hold off his defender and strike a ball across the keeper for 2-1.
Sheffield had the game in their control at this point, and they made it 3-1 on 72 minutes after substitute Josh Ayres picked up the ball in midfield, before striding and striking home a low hard shot from 25 yards.
Despite looking like a tired outfit, Dearne continued to play some adventurous football and had several chances to pull one back, with Jake Austin and Brandon Burke both sending efforts over the bar from inside the area.
In the last minute the visitors made it 4-1 giving the scoreline a convincing look, keeper George Bristol’s goal-kick was only half hit, with Connor Cuts returning with interest from 30 yards out.
So that sets up a juicy quarter final tie between Hallam FC and Sheffield at Sandygate, the first meeting since July 2021 and the first competitive meeting since October 2012, a game the South Yorkshire public will be looking forward to with anticipation.
MATCH REPORT: SHREWSBURY TOWN 3 SHEFFIELD FC 3 (4-3 PENS)
Sheffield FC’s Women’s FA Cup adventure came to a dramatic end on Sunday, as they were eliminated in a penalty shootout in Round Two, after finishing level 3-3 against Shrewsbury Town.
A late change of venue saw the game moved at short notice from Shawbury United’s ground to Shrewsbury’s regular home at Croud Meadow, and the visitors looked rusty in the first half, with the Shrews dominating play from the off. The hosts took the lead on 12 minutes following a defensive slip, 16-year-old Eva Stanley capitalising after some pressure on the Sheffield back line, tucking the ball beyond Leah Kellogg to make it 1-0.
After resisting wave after wave of Shrewsbury attack, Club were able to hold out for the rest of the first half, coming out a different proposition after the break. Less than a minute after the restart Stacey Buxton hooked the ball to Halima Essa, the striker fed the ball to Lucy Cook in space on the left, with the winger curling the shot past Katy Smith.
The crowd had barely had time to process this goal when Shrewsbury responded at the other end, some positive play from Katie Doster on the left picked out Stanley in space, with the youngster scoring in off the post.
On 53 minutes it was 2-2, Lucy Cook bursting down the left wing before playing a telling ball to Halima Essa, who managed to get the vital touch to stab the ball past a stranded keeper.
The yoyo nature of the game continued on 63 minutes, a low cross from Zoe Child found Kim Bebbington in the box, her first effort was blocked by Leah Kellogg but she was able to steer the rebound home from close range.
Sheffield threw everything at the hosts, and it looked like it would be in vain until the third minute of stoppage time, as skipper Tilly Hallas-Potts rose above everyone to head home to send the game to penalties.
As expected, the shootout produced a dramatic finale, and after Alicia Robinson opened the scoring for Salop, Sadie Smith and Eva Stanley exchanged missed penalties.
Brooke Smith and Lucy Cook converted theirs for Sheffield, Hetty Arnold and Maddie Jones did the same for Shrewsbury, and with Katy Smith saving Louisa Anderson’s attempt, it was left to Jeorgia Carr to tuck home the winner.
MATCH REPORT:
THORNCLIFFE VILLA 4 SHEFFIELD FC U21 3
Sheffield FC’s Development side were cursing their luck once again on Thursday night, as they continued their losing streak at table topping Thorncliffe Villa, with the home side running out fortunate 4-3 winners.
Villa made the perfect start and took the lead within the opening 90 seconds, Ben Vigrass finding himself free on the edge of the area, his shot was well blocked by Finlay Rhys-Jones however Cohen Izzard was there to slam home the rebound.
Club responded on 10 minutes, after some good work on the left, OJ Pyke took the ball on to drive under the keeper from 25 yards out.
Parity didn’t last long and on 13 minutes Thorncliffe had retaken the lead, skipper Daniel Ashton hitting the bar, with Izzard on the spot to nip home the rebound to make it 2-1.
Izzard completed his hat-trick on 34 minutes, after being put through the middle, and drilling his shot under RhysJones.
Sheffield came out in the second half in full force, reducing the deficit three minutes after the restart, with winger Blake Freeman hitting a pearl of a shot that bounced in off the far post.
The visitors continued to press a shellshocked home side, and were rewarded with an equaliser on 74 minutes, with Jake MadeyBarnes rifling home to make it 3-3. Instead of pushing on for a winner, Club were hit with a massive gut blow two minutes later, Cohen Izzard played a hopeful ball into the area which saw the keeper slip, allowing substituteParker Wroe to apologetically tap into the empty net to retake the lead.
Sheffield continued to press but were unable to get the vital goal, with Tyler Burrell hitting the bar at the other end, almost rubbing salt in the wound.
