Wakefield Athletic Football Club, who field three teams in the Wakefield & District Sunday Football League have been able to secure a "Rescue Package" at the eleventh hour with “West Yorkshire Sports & Social Club” for this coming season for the use of their playing/changing facilities in Sandal.

The club which was founded in 1983 had become nomads following the loss of their playing facilities at Stanley Royd Hospital, Fieldhead Hospital and Lime Pit Lane, Stanley over the last few years.

Wakefield Athletic have been in constant touch with local MP's, WMDC, regional & local media in relation to the unfolding circumstances over the last decade.  The club were on the verge of throwing the towel in last season but managed to come through the crisis with the league agreeing to the club playing most of their matches away.
