Leeds' TV Harrison sports ground brought back to life for charity football match

The field on Oldfield Lane, Wortley, has been officially closed since 2003 and faces an uncertain future, with plans to build 50 houses on the site well underway.

A handful of volunteers have spent months clearing overgrown grass and shrubbery to get it back to a playable standard for the charity fixture.

The match will be followed by a charity raffle, with prizes including a Burley Banksy canvas, a Wortley FC shirt signed by Kalvin Phillips, pamper vouchers and plenty of booze.

All proceeds raised will go towards a specialist wheelchair for eight-year-old Oliver Rooney.

Oliver, from Bramley, has an extremely rare chromosomal disorder and is in need of an all-terrain wheelchair so he can watch his four brothers play football and join them on adventures.

TV Harrison XI will take on Armley Christ Church FC at 2pm on Sunday.
