AS WE PLAY IN THE SHEFFIELD AND DISTRICT FAIR PLAY LEAGUE, ONE OF THE REQUIREMENTS OF THE LEAGUE FOR ALL NEW TEAMS HOPING TO JOIN ARE THAT THEY HAVE AN AFFILIATION WITH A CHURCH.

THE LEAGUE HAVE ALWAYS SET ABOUT TO MAKE THE UNIQUE LINK BETWEEN FOOTBALL AND THE CHURCH A REQUIREMENT SO AS TO HELP BUILD THE CONNECTION BETWEEN THE TWO.

WHEN WE DROPPED AN INVITATION TO WALKLEY EBENZER TO SEE IF THIS WOULD BE SOMETHING THEY WOULD BE INTERESTED IN BEING INVOLVED IN, WE WERE MET WITH A VERY ENTHUSIASTIC (AND MOST WELCOME FROM OUR SIDE) DEFINITELY.

KATE RUNS THE SOCIAL MEDIA FOR THE CHURCH, AS WELL AS VOLUNTEERING HER SERVICES TO THEM IN GENERAL AND COULD NOT HAVE BEEN MORE HELPFUL IN BUILDING THIS LINK AND TO THIS DAY SHE, ALONG WITH OTHER MEMBERS OF WALKLEY EBENEZER, CONTINUES TO SUPPORT US, SENDING MESSAGES OF SUPPORT WEEKLY AND EVEN POPPING DOWN TO GAMES ON OCCASIONS WHEN SCHEDULES ALLOW.

ALL THAT IS JUST HOW THEY SUPPORT US ON THE PITCH BUT THE LINK IS MUCH MORE THAN THAT.
KATE AND WALKLEY EBENEZER OFFER US A CHANCE TO TALK SHOULD SOMETHING BE ON OUR MINDS. THIS IS PART OF THE BARRIER WE ARE BOTH LOOKING TO HELP BREAK DOWN WHEN IT COMES TO MEN AND THEIR MENTAL HEALTH.

WE COULD NOT BE MORE THRILLED TO BE LINKED WITH SUCH A WARM, SUPPORTIVE ORGANISATION.
WALKLEY EBENEZER ARE A METHODIST CHURCH THAT PRIDES THEMSELVES ON MANY THINGS, ESPECIALLY SHOWING INCLUSIVITY TO ALL.
THAT ALSO ALIGNS WITH OUR BELIEFS AS A FOOTBALL CLUB.


BELOW ARE CONTACT DETAILS FOR THE CHURCH SHOULD YOU WISH TO GET IN TOUCH WITH THEM, INCLUDING LINKS TO THEIR SOCIAL MEDIA PAGES.
