The club preparing to play again after the death of a player

Hendon will return to football on Saturday, 12 days after midfielder Ezekiel Williams died from head injuries at the age of 26. His death has deeply affected the north-west London club, whose players and staff are still grieving as they prepare to play at Bedfont Sports.

Williams joined Hendon in September and had previously played for clubs including Hastings United, Kettering Town and St Ives Town. He scored in a league match on 24 October and played three days later; the team has not played since his death on 2 November. Hendon has offered counselling to players, while manager Adam Fisher is preparing to address the squad before their first match without him.
