Wednesdayite’s SMILE Month in Full Swing!
Since 2006, Wednesdayite’s SMILE scheme aims to award free match tickets to disadvantaged and deserving people in our local community. We work with the club’s Community Programme to identify and give tickets out every match for the entire season.

Recently we put a smile on the face of eight-year-old Ben O’Brien, who has bone cancer affecting his left knee and shin. As a result footy-mad Ben missed much school and the chance to see his classmates. Thanks to the kind donation of Owls fans, Wednesdayite gave Ben the chance to bring his whole class to watch the Owls! Or what about Craig Williams, who has to use a wheelchair and finds that he has to follow the Owls on the radio for the most part – our Smile Experience allowed he and his carer to come and cheer on his beloved Wednesday in person.

These are just two examples. We have delivered over one thousand SMILE Experiences to disadvantaged people. But we can only continue this good work with support from our incredible fan base.

We have made August SMILE Month – already we have raised over £1500 for the SMILE scheme and we are asking for Owls fans to take part in our SMILE fundraising events – both at the match and online – throughout the month so that we can buy the largest possible amount of tickets to give to deserving fans.

Donate today at www.wednesdayite.com/smile and get free entry into our draw to win a signed 2011/12 SWFC shirt – every donor will go into the hat for this great prize – along with other great Owls stuff such as a Hillsborough canvas and much, much more!

Wednesdayite & SWWFC – Another Great Combination!
Wednesdayite is proud to announce that we have agreed to sponsor Sheffield Wednesday Womens’ Football Club for the upcoming season, building on our community sponsorship of Northern Ireland international Lauren Asquith – who plays in midfield for the Owls’ womens team. Not only will the Wednesdayite logo adorn the SWWFC kit, but Wednesdayite members are entitled to free admission to SWWFC home games at Retford United FC’s ground in north Notts. With Wednesday’s women embarking on a serious tilt at promotion to the FA Womens’ Premier League following their cup exploits last season, there’s never been a better time to get behind the girls and cheer both Wednesday sides onto a successful season!

For more details on SWWFC and their upcoming fixtures, be sure to check out their website at www.swwfc.net
