Levi Higginson


Levi Higginson was a footballer who played as a goalkeeper for Burslem Port Vale in the early 1890s.

Playing career

Higginson most probably joined Burslem Port Vale in 1890. He enjoyed a successful spell with the team and was between the sticks for two cup final victories – the North Staffordshire Charity Challenge Cup in 1891 and the Staffordshire Charity Cup in 1892. He played 43 matches for the club in all; including 21 friendlies, one Football League Second Division and 17 Midland League matches. However, he failed to turn up at the Athletic Ground for a league match with Grimsby Town in February 1893, after conceding two goals to them the previous month. He was not selected again and was instead released at the end of 1892–93 season.
