Stokesberry played one match during the 1915 season for Richmond in the Victorian Football League:[1][2]

He was a centre-half-forward whose only club game was as a last minute replacement when Richmond were short of players. He was the son of the talented boxer, respected referee, and Richmond trainer, Joseph Allwood "Joe" Stokesberry."[3][4]
