Mayfield Mustangs U8 side

Mayfield Mustangs under eights played their last match of the season against Burtonwood Bulldogs on Sunday (28 October).

Coaches Lee Bradley and Graeme Pearson would like to thank all the children, parents, sponsors and club officials for all the support they have given throughout the year.

Graeme said: “It’s been a tough season, but we’ve all absolutely loved it.”

A representative from the Stephen Gartland Foundation was on hand at the final whistle to give children from both teams a goodie bag, whilst promoting the foundation’s work in getting children active and promoting a healthy lifestyle.

The Stephen Gartland Foundation was launched in memory of aeronautical engineer, Stephen Gartland (aka ‘Garty’), who took his own life in August 2016, aged just 45, after suffering with depression.
