Sam, along with some of his teammates and friends took advantage of one of our flag bearing packages as the Iron hosted Bristol Rovers on Saturday.
The 16-strong group, including Sam, came along 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 the Gas 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 after a number of them had previously enjoyed Study Parks' Supporter 2 Reporter programme. The supporters also visited the referee's room and the boot room.
The final stop was the home dressing room, having their shirts signed by the Iron players, along with gaining selfies and group picturs, before they awaiting the arrival of the rest of the players outside the entrance.
The package was a birthday booking, which was to celebrate Sam's 11th birthday along with some of his teammates from Crowle Colts U11s and some of his other friends.
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.
