Following successful negotiations with The Sheffield College , we have secured an agreement to use their car park at the Hillsborough Campus on match days. Sincere thanks to them for being accommodating to our needs.
The Wednesdayite car park, on the current site, will be open for the last ever match day this Sunday from 9:30am. The car park's last usage will be on 30th June for Owls in the Park, after which it will be handed back to the developers to commence groundworks on the new retail park. See here for plans for the site,
We have searched the area for alternatives but as was expected a direct replacement cannot be found.
We are, however, currently close to getting an agreement The Sheffield College , Hillsborough Campus, to use their car park on match days.
However as the capacity will be around 200 cars(we currently have 237 permit holders plus 68 disabled permit holders). Also due to constraints of the car park we will NOT be able to offer any pay on the day parking. Parking will therefore only be available for season permits.
Should we secure an agreement, permits will only initially be available to persons who had a permit in 2018/19 and be subject to them joining Wednesdayite for 2019/20 before purchasing their permit on a first come first served basis.
We expect these to be on sale from 1st July 2019 so put his date in your diary.
Food bank collection -THIS SUNDAY
On Sunday we will be donating 50% of our car park takings as well as collecting cash and/or food donations for the foodbank of PXI Projects
The food bank would be grateful for the following:-

Thank you - £1,122.49 raised for Cavendish Cancer Care
Written by CCP User
Thanks to all SWFC fans who parked in the Wednesdayite car park on Sunday for Owls in the Park.
Your generous donations were greatly appreciated as we beat our £1,000 target and raised £1,122.49 for Cavendish Cancer Care.
Thanks also to Jeff and Doug for opening the car park and ensuring cars were safely parked throughout a day with blistering heat
We will be repeating this method of admission for the Villareal friendly so why not park in the nearest public car park to the ground and raise money for such a worthwhile local charity.
Wednesday’s home kit for the 2018/19 campaign has been unveiled ahead of Owls in the Park 2018 this Sunday, 1 July.
Blue and white stripes return to the front of the shirt, which sports a solid blue back, while the shorts revert to black with blue socks and a black turnover.
Our SMILE Ticket scheme is the perfect way to give the gift of a free match at Hillsborough to someone who deserves it. Previous seasons have seen us not only reach out to those who are battling medical conditions and groups of schoolchildren, but also to other fans who, for whatever reason, have seen their love of the Owls take a back seat to the issues facing them in their lives. So we thought - why not make SMILE available to deserving Wednesdayites across the entire SWFC family?
