List of goalscorers
The Sheffield Wednesday championship team
The following table lists all players who were used in a league game during the 1929/30 season for Sheffield Wednesday. It must be noted that in English football a minimum number of games is usually required in order to receive the official championship medal. Since there was uncertainty about the specific regulation before the introduction of the Premier League, all players who presumably did not receive a championship medal due to their low contribution were marked with an asterisk (*). The number of appearances and the goals scored are given in brackets, lastly the number of all first division games up to that point. The Sheffield Wednesday players had played a total of 1959 first division games at the end of the season.
