As part of its forward strategy work for the 2026-27 season, the Board has been reviewing its pricing policy for admission and for season tickets. Consideration has been given both to the continuing increase in the club’s general expenditure costs and to the pricing structure and season ticket prices of every club in the league. The Board has been keen to keep the prices as competitive as possible to encourage the fantastic take up we have had over the last few seasons, whilst ensuring that the club remains competitive on the pitch. Concessionary rates will continue to kick in aged 60.

As of next season, our admission prices will be:

· Adults £12 (£1 increase);

· Concessions £8 (£1 increase),

· 14-17 £6 (£1 increase);

· Under 14s still free when accompanied by an adult. However, without an adult, under 14s will not be allowed entry on their own for Safeguarding reasons

Season tickets for 2026-27 have simply increased in line with inflation and will be:

· Adults: £170 (previously £165);

· Concessions: £112 (previously £109);

· 14-17: £77 (previously £75)

Early bird season tickets have always proved highly popular given the excellent value they represent. These will be discounted by around 20% from the full season ticket price. Tickets can be purchased at these early bird prices until the end of June, when prices will revert. These prices will meet or beat all bar one season ticket offered this season by any other club in our league (even before other clubs make their own annual price rises).

· Adult: £139 (previously £135);

· Concessions £92 (previously £89);

· 14-17 £67 (previously £65)

Tickets will allow entry into league games and to the two major friendly games currently scheduled for Shawbridge. By way of an example, an early bird adult ticket would allow entry into all league games and friendlies for an average of £6.

Tickets will be available online, from the Club Shop at the Kidsgrove game and from Banana News in town thereafter. Payment in three instalments will be available as an option for tickets bought on line. Tickets will be available after the final instalment is received.

Season tickets also give priority access to tickets for key Cup games and are a key part of the club’s income. We hope you will continue to support your club in your usual numbers.
