SJFL SPONSORING LOCAL CHARITIES SEASON 2024-2025 – The Life of Riley


The second event of the Shropshire Junior Football League (SJFL) Festival of Finals was held at Shrewsbury Sports Village  on Sunday 11th May 2025. With eight (8) Charity Cup/League  finals to be played for it was always going to be the busiest event in the league’s calendar  but a rewarding one as the festival was dedicated to the Life of Rile charity – in memory of Riley Evans who tragically lost his battle with cancer at the tender age of 12 years old.

As with previous seasons Charity Cup Festival of Finals, SJFL and member clubs are always willing to support those worthy causes and todays finals was no exception. The generosity of supporters was beyond words as in addition to the league’s pledge of £500 and further donations made on the day a total of  £1506 was raised for the Life of Riley charity – exceptional!
