Don't know re the Sharks, my Dad taught Parry at Highfield and ran the rugby team there for a bit also with Jackie Melling in the team. I remember having the Challenge Cup in the car boot when Warrington won it in 1974. Yep there was once a Wigan Highfield for sure, think they became Liverpool Stanley / huyton etc.
