Club career

Bill Horton made his début for Wakefield Trinity during August 1924, he played his last match for Wakefield Trinity during the 1937–38 season, and he appears to have scored no drop-goals (or field-goals as they are currently known in Australasia), but prior to the 1974–75 season all goals, whether; conversions, penalties, or drop-goals, scored 2-points, consequently prior to this date drop-goals were often not explicitly documented, therefore '0' drop-goals may indicate drop-goals not recorded, rather than no drop-goals scored. In addition, prior to the 1949–50 season, the archaic field-goal was also still a valid means of scoring points.

Genealogical information

Bill Horton married Sybil Irene (née Webber) (birth registered during second ¼ 1903 in Bristol district - death unknown) during June 1927 in Wakefield.[5] They had children; John A. Horton (birth registered during first ¼ 1928 in Wakefield district).
