Kenneth Sykes 71 today?. Ken came to Parkside in 1971 on trials from Hepworth ARLFC. His last trial game just happened to be his 1st team debut for Hunslet against Swinton. After the match Club director Cyril Penderleath told Ken the club would like him to sign pro forms and asked him what his fee would be. Ken asked for £1000, after Cyril picked himself up of the floor Ken showed his great negotiation skill and finished up settling for a contract worth £200.
He started his career has a winger and finished up playing prop forward. Making him the slowest winger to play at Parkside but the fastest and most intelligent prop.
Joking aside Ken is one of the best ambassadors of today’s game. He his current chairman of Hunslet RLFC, President of Hunslet RLFC Ex Parkside Players Association and Secretary/Trustee/Dogs Body at Hepworth ARLFC.
Ken was inducted into the Hunslet Hall of Fame last year and his Hunslet Heritage Number is 1121.
Happy Birthday Ken from every one in the Whole Wide World?
