Not sure if this scheme happened last year and I've only just found out or whether the RFL have planned it to happen this year.
www.therfl.co.uk/kidsgofree
Basically in selected school holidays the RFL are giving out free tickets to under 16s the Championship and Championship 1 games.
Perhaps the RFL should think about trying this in Super League for one round. It would dramatically boost attendances and would get younger people involved in the game.
What do you guys think? |

Don't kids get in for the equivalent of £1 a game if they have a season ticket? I'm sure they do at wigan.

For Super League away games, juniors get free tickets if they have a season ticket.

[quote="dally messenger":1gysl9ow]was watching an nfl doco. on one of their teams and they used the term bomb to describe those long high passes from quaterback to running back and i think gibson took that idea, realized you cant throw the ball forward in RL and adapted it to a "bomb" kick we have[/quote:1gysl9ow]

Has been free for all under 16s for as long as i can remember at Huddersfield.
It costs my 14 year old £35 for a season ticket and that includes away games. £35 for 27 games.

Tell Saints that then, seems a few of our lot have been done over ahead of Friday's game. |

Dropkick Murphy..we actually saw and heard a mass of bouncing and scarf and flag waving to Dale Cavese that drowned out anything we could muster.. It stopped us singing our own celebratory songs, it died out seconds later when we accepted we couldn't be heard over the Wigan lot
Celebrations muted from us, job done from them. Most fans who slag them off are jealous their own club's support is nowhere near that good
-
sally cinnamon..Why not discuss Wigan? It's a rugby league message board. Wigan are the most famous brand in rugby league
-
Tre Cool..Saints fans are hopeless unless it's a cup final or grand final. Wigan fans are so much more loyal and passionate
-
the flying biscuit..Wires havent been massively succesful over the years, but I've spoke to Brian Bevan And he spoke to me and i wouldnt swap that for Wigans History, ever
-
Ande..on the TV i could only hear the Wigan fans with about 10 to go
-
Saint94..Every team is in your feckin shadow, we all know

This should be down to the clubs in my opinion when it comes to the league. The challenge cup and millenium magic is the oppertunity for these things.
We all get in free for the first round of the CC but it would be great if the kids did for every round, especially for the lower league clubs so they could get some great crowds.

As I said the clubs need to sort out their league attendances, great idea from wire with this true colours ticket concept. Terrific stuff. All clubs including my own should be doing this kind of thing for fans who cannot make every game.

Free Kids schemes for any games, any leagues any competitions should always involve being accompanied by a paying adult. In the past I've seen large numbers of unaccompanied youngsters using the grounds/games as a play-ground causing problems for other spectators and stewards in particular.
