Frickley Athletic charity beard shave

Frickley Athletic charity beard shave

Frickley Athletic chairman Stuart Highfield will shave off his beard on October 24 to raise money for Carlton Main Frickley Colliery Band.

The club said: "Stuart has allowed his usually beautifully manicured beard to develop somewhat during lockdown – so much so that it has now got its own postcode.

"He is itching (literally & metaphorically) to get rid of it and with that in mind Stuart will have his beard shaved off – before our home game against Market Drayton Town on Saturday 24th October – to raise funds for our neighbours, the world renowned Carlton Main Frickley Colliery Band.

"To give you some context, the last time Stuart was clean shaven was in 1973, when as a mere stripling of a lad he went to watch the FA Cup final between Leeds & Sunderland

"See below for more details & please give what you can – we are very lucky to have a world famous band in our community – so come on, let’s show them what they mean to us."
