Sheffield welcome new right-back

15 Jan 2024 By James Gordon

Liversedge right-back Jack Hardacre has joined fellow Pitching In NPL East Division side Sheffield.

Hardacre played over two spells for Sedge, first joining the club following a six-year spell in the Leeds United academy.

He left Sedge to play college football in the USA for four years before joining Hyde United on his return to the UK.

A move back to the Clayborn Ground followed, with Hardacre part of the Liversedge squad that competed in the Northern Premier League for the first time in the club's history in 2022/23.

He has featured 20 times for Sedge this season, including in a 3-2 win against his new employers back in September. Hardacre also scored his only goal of the season to date in a 5-0 victory over Newton Aycliffe back in August.

He made his Sheffield debut during Saturday's 2-1 defeat at Cleethorpes Town but was forced off with just 16 minutes gone.
