Local junior football side Appleby Frodingham Saints U6s took advantage of one of our flag bearing packages as the Iron hosted Doncaster Rovers on Saturday.
13 players from the side were present to enjoy the experience, which saw them allowed onto the pitch prior to kick-off, as they got involved with the pre-match routine.
They welcomed both teams onto the pitch, taking advantage of group booking prices, before enjoying the encounter against Rovers from the SPB Stand.
Prior to the game, the side took advantage of a behind-the-scenes tour opportunity, which allowed them into otherwise restricted areas of the stadium. The group were able to pretend they were being interviewed in front of our press conference boards in the press room, before they gained access to the club's boot room.
The final stop was the home dressing room, having pictures next to their favourite player's shirts, before they awaiting the arrival of the players outside the player's entrance, gaining autographs and pictures. The side also remained at the entrance for the arrival of Doncaster Rovers' team coach before entering the ground and making use of the OSG Bar.
We are now sold out for flag bearing and big flag packages in the 2018-19 campaign, but we are now taking early interest for the 2019-20 season. Click here for more details.
