Here come the Predators
The Sheffield Predators play their football in the BAFACL Division 2 Central and kick-off their campaign this season at the home of the Staffordshire Surge, on Sunday May 22. The Yorkshire side first play in front of their own fans on the following Sunday (May 29), as they welcome the Shropshire Revolution to Gosforth Playing Fields. This will be the new venue for all Predators’ games this term, with a regular start time of 4pm.
The Predators share game day with youth side the Sheffield Tomahawks. So if you want to make a day of it, get down to the playing fields for 1pm to take in both games on a home Sunday in Sheffield. The Tomahawks welcome players as young as seven and up to the age of 18. If you are interested in getting involved you can find out a little bit more here, or e-mail team@sheffieldtomahawks.org.uk.
If you want to get behind your local team, and follow the Sheffield Predators’ campaign this season, here is their home schedule so you can get the dates in your diary. As stated earlier, all kick-off times are 4pm.
