A team resembling the foundations of Supersonic emerged in early 1994, playing on the playing fields of Dronfield School. This early line-up boasted many of the current squad; Michael Davies, Kris Wigfield and James Lister were amongst those who lined up to face rival teams from the Dronfield area. During its first two seasons the backbone of the team was strengthened with appearances from Paul Smith, Chris Sutcliffe, John Lamb and James Mathers.
It was during these early years that the team took to their blue and white stripes, mainly owing to many of the team's affiliation with local side Sheffield Wednesday.
Add to this a Huddersfield Town fan and a few borrowed shirts and the team had its first kit.
During these early years the line-up often varied with many players donning the infamous blue and white strip.
In 1996 the team played under the name of 'Wiggy's blue and white wizards' as they struggled to come up with a name to capture the spirit of their play on the pitch.
It was with this name that the team was entered into its first competitive tournament - a five-a-side tournament on a local recreation field.
Receiving a bye into the group stages, the team performed well only to be knocked out by the eventual winners.
In a short space of time the team had achieved a lot, with young 17/18 year old lads competing well against men many years their senior.
A year on and the team had grown. With the creative help of Chris Sutcliffe's mum, the team entered their next competition under the name of Supersonic - after the Oasis song that was played before games. This time the team walked the group stages and found itself in the semi-final having not conceded a goal. Sadly the team lacked a killing instinct in front of goal and the game ended level at 0-0 after extra time. Next up were penalties and tensions were high as the team narrowly missed out on the final. Still the team could take heart from their display. Having not conceded a goal throughout the tournament, the team's ability to defend well as a unit was a sign of things to come in the future.
As further education beckoned the team lost Michael Davies to Staffordshire University and Chris Sutcliffe to Manchester University.
The team then lost its way, playing infrequently except for the occasional eleven-a-side game.
Then in the spring of 1997 with Chris back from Manchester, the team entered the Dronfield Civic Centre Five-a-Side league
(with Chris Sutcliffe as secretary and Kris Wigfield as captain as their first competitive league.
The starting line-up was Scarf, Lamb, Wigfield, Sutcliffe and Mathers, Supersonic changing from its usual six-a-side line up to the new five-man team.
In this league the team soon got into winning ways, triumphing in four of it's first five games, however the team was soon to suffer it's first set back.
Losing heavily to the division leaders, it was decided that with a squad of only five, reinforcements were needed and the team made its first two new signings.
Pete Quinn and Neil Schofield were recruited from Rotherham eleven-a-side team Swinden House S&SC FC.
They soon produced the goods with Neil Schofield equalising against second placed team Contact to finish an amazing comeback from 5-3 down to draw 5-5.
Soon it became clear that the five-a-side league was as much about squads as the first five and so Supersonic ventured into the transfer market once again to capture the signature of
young local footballing talent Neil Wright.
With Neil on the books, the team felt the only place requiring improvement was between the posts, precipitating the signing of Goalkeeper Paul Smith who had previously played with the club.
The team has now played in the Dronfield Civic Centre league for over five seasons, and the Dronfield based players felt that they needed to branch out in order to improve their fitness. So Smith, Wigfield, Sutcliffe, Lister and Davies entered 'Supersonics' (as they were to be called) for the Wednesday night Bunkers Five-a-side League. James Lister was installed as secretary of the team, with often-comical results. With high demands on their time, the Wednesday side has needed strength in depth, appearances from the likes of Peach, Savage-Mady, Mathers and Steve Lister are common-place.
In their first five seasons in the Dronfield Civic Centre five-a-side league, Supersonic have synergised natural ability, youthful enthusiasm and a sense of fair play to become a force to be reckoned with. Recognising this, the Civic Centre chose Supersonic above more successful teams to represent the town of Dronfield and their country at the twin town millennium celebrations in Sindelfingen, Germany. As this chapter of Supersonic history closes, the team are preparing to conquer Europe with their own version of sexy football.
