Rotherham Special Care Baby Unit

Brinsworth Whitehill Under 10's recently held a fashion show, organized by Sue Earp. Sue had twins a few months ago and they were in the Rotherham Special Care Baby Unit so all the money raised on the night was donated to the unit.
Pictured is Lee Cardwell, the under 10's manager, presenting Sister Bev Lomas with a cheque. She was also presented with £58.20 in cash and 30 blankets for the unit. Brinsworth Whitehill JFC also donated £125 to the unit.

Brinsworth Whitehill JFC is now supporting the Don't X The Line Campaign.


This campaign is aimed at promoting respect in the game of football.
It is intended for parent's, managers, referee's and of course the players themselves.
Parental involvement is very important to the campaign and as parents you are encouraged to enjoy football at grass roots football and to support referees.

Referees are very hard to come by- they need your support.

If as a parent you think you are aggressive or abusive then do yourself a favour and stay at home - that way you will be supporting the campaign and leaving children to play football.

More referees are needed!

Good supporters are always welcome to cheer along their team in a friendly and sporting manner.

Further details will be distributed to each parent through your section managers or visit the website
Soccer Mums wanting to get involved please visit this link for further details.

Well done to this years Whitehill Under 8's team who went to Southport on the weekend of 26/05/07 in a tournament and manage to win it in a dramatic final against Harpfield.
Below is a slide show of the team and parents.

 

  

Pictured below are parent's from the under 9's, 13's & 14's and parent's from the rest of the club who played each other in a charity football match on December 27th 2005



The event was a great success with Premier League referee Howard Webb donating his services on the day and guests who also attended included world champion boxer Clinton Woods and ex Sheffield Wednesday legends Mel Sterland and Charlie Williamson.

The event raised £250 with all money being donated to SADS (Sudden Adult Death Syndrome).

 

 

The club is very proud to announce that we have now been awarded the FA Charter Standard Community Club Status.

This a terrific honour and we are one of only a few clubs to attain this status.

May we thank everyone involved with the club and especially Steve Smith for his hard work in getting the application through.

As part of this status we are building up links with all the local schools and possibly other community groups.

These links will I am sure ensure the future of the club and enable us to provide football for as many people as possible.

To give you a bit more of an idea what the award is all about here is what Steve Parkin The FA's National Game Director has to say about it: "FA Community Clubs are the cornerstones of The FA National Game strategy. Achieving FA Community Club status is not easy, but is achieved by clubs who are committed to putting themselves at the heart of their local football communities, not only for existing participants but for future generations too."

Pictured below are a few of the kids, out of the 50 people from the club, who recently attended a promotional day out at Sheffield United's ground.
The day included a tour of the ground and dressing rooms, a visit to the Blades Hall of Fame, lunch, complimentary programme and gift for all juniors, free junior blades membership for all juniors attending and Brinsworth Whitehill featured in the programme.





This was the first time SUFC have attempted such a promotion and it was a great honour for the club to have been chosen.

 

 

 



Following on from all the hard work and dedication to grass root's football that saw the club being awarded the
F.A. Charter Mark,
the club has now also been rewarded by being chosen to become a development club for
Sheffield Wednesday Football Club, one of the biggest club's in the local area.
This will further enable the club to offer quality coaching and keep up the highest standard's of football with the help of professional advice and coaching session's from one of the football league's longest established club.

 

 


Thanks to all the hard work of the manager's and coach's Brinsworth Whitehill J.F.C. has now achieved the
F.A. Charter Standard.

Pictured below are Trevor Ashforth, Malc Kershaw, Glynn Perry and players from the club receiving the award at the recent England U17's v Armenia U17's game.
