1936

From Sid Grant History of Coalfields Soccer

This became Weston's "marvellous season" as the  Geordies took out the season's double against powerful opposition from the Sydney area. In a 22 league programme, Weston topped the premiership on 39 points. from Adamstown (36), Metters (34), and Goodyear (31). In the Sheahan Cup semi-finals, Weston outed Metters by 3 to 2 and Goodyear slammed Adamstown by 5 to 1.

It was a battle royal before the final was decided - in first clash, 1 all, but in the final replay, Weston showed its class by winning by 2 to nil. Weston's XI was unchanged for these two hectic tussles and comprised McNabb, Drinkwater, Harris, Shakespeare, Har­den, E. Kemp, Wilkinson, McCroarey, Stevenson, J. Kemp, J. Leddon. 

But that was not all - Weston beat Cessnock (7 to 1), St. George (6 to 0) after a scoreless draw, Adamstown (1 to 0), to qualify to meet the mighty Metters in Cup final. 

In a tough 90 minutes classic at Clyde Oval, Granville, the Coalies lasted the distance until a 3 to 2 win over Metters, whose team included no fewer than ten representative stars. The hero that day was the mighty midget, "Sketa" Wilkinson, who bagged two glorious goals - a superb exhibition of wing forward play. 

Weston's final team included - McNabb, Drinkwater, Harris, Shakespeare, Harden, E. Kemp, Wilkinson, McCroarey, Stevenson, J. Kemp, Leddons.

The club honoured the season's triple success with a Victory Banquet, at which over 120 former Weston stars assembled to pay tribute to the successful players. Goalscorers were Stevenson (28), J. Kemp (15), J. Wilkinson (13), J. Williams (12), J. McCroarey (11), E. Kemp (11).
