Following the passing of our friend Steven Wright in 2022 we have looked at ways to keep his memory alive and to raise money for charities that meant so much to Steven and his family.

On Saturday 27th May, 11 of Stevens friends tackled the Lyke Wake Walk challenge, a 40 mile walk across the North York Moors in under 24 hours from Osmotherley to Ravenscar.

Saturday the 26th August 2023 at 2pm will be the 2nd Steven Wright Memorial Football Match, this will become an annual event to celebrate the life of the most special person all of us had the pleasure of knowing.

Two teams of family and friends of Steven will play against each other and players are spectators will be invited to make donation online. The proceeds will go to family and the Alice House Hospice, Hartlepool, who cared for Steven during his illness. Following the game everyone is invited to attend a gathering in the Seaton Carew clubhouse, where food and refreshments will be available, alongside activities for children.

We are hoping that the event will be well attended and that people will give generously to a wonderful cause that mean so much Steven’s family.

Steven was an exceptional footballer who loved nothing more than playing football with friends and family. We are certain he will looking down with pride on this event and we look forward to seeing as many of you as possible. We want the event to continue the legacy of one of life’s true gentleman who meant so much to us all.

Many thanks.
