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
Good afternoon and welcome for today’s match against Liversedge FC. First and foremost, I want to thank you all for your continued support, especially after a tough couple of results. Coming off the back of two defeats against strong opposition is never easy, and I know the players share the disappointment. However, I firmly believe in this squad’s ability to bounce back. We have shown time and again that we can compete, and today is a big opportunity to put things right.
On a personal note, I’m delighted to have committed to the club for another season, regardless of what lies ahead. The belief shown in me by the board and the club’s directors means a great deal, and I don’t take that responsibility lightly. We are building something here, and I am determined to push this team forward. The challenge in front of us is clear, but I have absolute faith that we have what it takes to climb the table and push for better.
Liversedge FC find themselves in a similar situation to us, and that makes today’s game a crucial one. We know they’ll come here ready to battle, and we have to be prepared to match their intensity from the first whistle. These are the moments where character shines through, and I have no doubt that the lads will rise to the occasion. We’ve worked hard in training, and now it’s about taking that onto the pitch.
Finally, I want to thank you, the fans, for sticking with us through the highs and lows. Your support means everything to the players, and today, more than ever, we need you right behind us. Let’s create an atmosphere that drives us forward and makes this a place no team wants to come. Enjoy the game, and let’s go out there and give it everything.
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.

Liversedge History
Liversedge Football Club has a long and storied history, dating back to its founding in 1910 after the demise of the old Liversedge Rugby Club. The club initially competed in the Bradford League, securing its first title in the 1920/21 season before becoming a founding member of the West Riding County Amateur League in 1922. Liversedge quickly established itself as a dominant force, winning the league three times in its first five seasons and later adding two more titles in the 1960s.
By the early 1970s, Liversedge transitioned to the Yorkshire League, marking a significant step forward in the club’s progression. Success soon followed, with an immediate promotion from Division Three and later reaching Division One. The club then became part of the newly formed Northern Counties
East League (NCEL) in 1982. Though the early years in this setup were challenging, Liversedge made steady progress, culminating in a runners-up finish in NCEL Division Two in 1988/89 and eventual promotion to the Premier Division.
The club’s resilience was evident throughout the following decades, particularly in the 2004/05 season when Liversedge embarked on an impressive FA Cup run, reaching the Fourth Qualifying Round. This success on the pitch translated into infrastructure improvements, with the club using funds from its cup exploits to level the famous Clayborn slope in 2005/06. That season also saw Liversedge win the NCEL League Cup for the first time and finish as Premier Division runners-up, although
promotion was denied due to facility requirements.
Despite managerial changes and fluctuating fortunes, Liversedge remained competitive in the NCEL, winning the Presidents Cup in 2007/08 and stabilizing under Jonathan Rimmington, who took charge in 2014/15. The club continued to push for success, reaching two League Cup finals in 2018 and 2019. Off the pitch, significant developments, including new changing rooms and club extensions, showcased the club’s ambitions. However, the 2019/20 and 2020/21 seasons were cut short due to the COVID-19 pandemic, disrupting their promotion hopes.
Undeterred, Liversedge capitalized on the FA’s pointsper-game promotion system and finally made their long-
awaited step up to the Northern Premier League. The 2021/22 season became the club’s most successful to date, as they won the league with just one defeat and secured a historic league and cup double with a West Riding County Cup victory over Brighouse Town. This achievement cemented their status at Step 3 of the football pyramid and marked a new era of ambition and progress for the club.
As Liversedge continues to battle in the Northern Premier League, the club’s rich history of resilience, determination, and success remains a driving force. From its early dominance in the County Amateur League to its modern-day rise, Liversedge FC stands as a testament to the passion and commitment of its players, staff, and supporters.
MATCH REPORT 0 2
SHEFFIELD FC VS DUNSTON
Sheffield FC fell to a 2-0 defeat against Dunston UTS at The Home of Football in a game that gradually came to life after a slow start.
The opening exchanges were cagey, with neither side managing to carve out any clearcut chances in the first ten minutes. However, as the game progressed, Sheffield began to find some rhythm, particularly down the right flank, where Chaz Stanniland and Sam Greenhouse linked up well to push forward. Dunston, on the other hand, had their own moments of promise, with David Robinson and JJ O’Donnell looking lively. It was O’Donnell who registered the first shot on target of the game, his headed effort forcing a routine save from Mikey Roxburgh between the sticks for The Club.
Despite both sides showing flashes of attacking intent, goalmouth action remained limited throughout the first half. Sheffield worked the
ball well in spells but struggled to create a decisive opening, while Dunston threatened sporadically but were also unable to break through. As a result, the two sides went into the break deadlocked at 0-0, with everything still to play for.
Dunston emerged for the second half with renewed energy and soon found the breakthrough. Ten minutes after the restart, O’Donnell whipped a pinpoint cross into Sheffield’s penalty area, where Jude Swailes rose highest to power a header past Roxburgh, handing the visitors the lead. The goal shifted the momentum firmly in Dunston’s favour, and they wasted little time in doubling their advantage. Just minutes later, Dale Pearson found space on the edge of the box and coolly slotted the ball into the bottom corner, with O’Donnell once again providing the assist.
Sheffield responded with a late push to get back into the game, coming close to halving the deficit through Luke Mangham, whose wellstruck shot whistled just past the post. Rory Coleman also delivered an inviting cross into the area, but no one in red and white could apply the finishing touch. The Club continued to press forward in search of a goal, but Dunston remained resolute in defence, seeing out the game to secure all three points.
Despite showing intent in the closing stages, Sheffield were ultimately unable to break down a well-organized Dunston side. The visitors’ clinical finishing in the second half proved to be the difference, leaving Sheffield FC with work to do as they look to bounce back in their next fixture.
MATCH REPORT: SHEFFIELD FC WOMEN 3 STAMFORD 0
Sheffield FC took a massive step towards a return to National League football on Sunday, as they tamed the only team to have defeated them this season, beating Stamford AFC 3-0 at the Home of Football. In a frantic first half, it was the visitors that were on top early on, although it took until the 27th minute to get a shot on target, with Laura Dowdell firing straight at Leah Kellogg.
A few minutes later Kellogg came to the rescue once again, as she was able to block a fierce shot at point blank range, denying an Eva Fowler effort from 15 yards out.
Club eventually got into the game, and five minutes before the break they took the lead after Halima Essa’s clinical pass through the defence found Mo McIntosh, who was able to compose herself and tuck the ball under keeper Maisie Thompson.
The second half was a different proposition completely with Sheffield coming out all guns blazing, and the lead was doubled on 56 minutes after Tilly Hallas-Potts’ volley rebounded off the bar, with Nicola Cooper smashing home the rebound for her first goal of the season.
It became one-way traffic from then on, with skipper Nicole Kemp denied twice by keeper Thompson, firstly from a free-kick and secondly an excellent tip over the bar. The points were wrapped up in the 82nd minute, substitute Lucy Cook picking out top scorer Stacey Buxton in the area, with the striker cutting inside to bury the ball.
The game came to an abrupt and sickening finish however, as in the sixth minute of stoppage time a Sheffield corner saw the hosts’ Tilly Hallas-Potts and visitors’ substitute Milly Ramm clash heads with a very bloody outcome, with the referee immediately blowing for time to allow extensive treatment that saw both head to Calow Hospital.
DEVELOPMENT TEAM SEASON REVIEW
Sheffield FC’s Development side completed their first season back in the North Midlands Development League, and it proved to be a difficult learning experience, coming up against a higher standard of opposition than in previous seasons.
Club started the season with a couple of losses, a late defeat to Swallownest, whilst a week later a very good Athersley side put our youngsters to the sword with a heavy defeat.
Our cup involvement came to an abrupt half at the first hurdle, losing away at Buxton, followed by three disappointing home defeats in a row to leave us at the bottom of the table.
Three away games at the top three sides followed, and whilst a heavy defeat to potential champions Penistone Church was a hard pill to swallow due to injuries and lack of availability, close run defeats at Thorncliffe Villa and Dinnington Town gave hope that improvement was being made.
That came to fruition at the end of January when table toppers at that time Thorncliffe Villa came to the Home of Football, and were blown away as the form tables were turned upside down, with the young Clubbies running out 5-1 winners.
The season was brought to a close with three draws, and a defeat at home to Handsworth, all involving a late goal to decide the outcome of the game.
It was the late goals conceded during the season that has been the biggest issue for the side, with four games seeing them lose games in the dying seconds, with another three seeing them concede to deny a win.
Overall it has been a promising season, Joint Managers Damo Magee and Brad Elam have done well to pick up following the departure of Marc Newsham, and go into the next campaign with experience and drive to improve on their seventh placed finish.
