FOOTBALL: Taunton Town to celebrate Non-League Day with reduced ticket prices

1:00pm Thursday 11th October 2012 in Sport

Taunton Town play North Leigh at Wordsworth Drive on Saturday hoping to bounce back from the heavy defeat to Yate Town on Tuesday evening.

To coincide with Non-League Day 2012, the club are offering reduced admission prices.

The national day was initiated to celebrate the semi-professional and amateur game, giving a chance for fans of bigger clubs to experience football at a level they may be otherwise unfamiliar with.

It is also a chance to shine a light on the hundreds of clubs who rely heavily on volunteers and who play a key role in the community.

Taunton are reducing their normal admission prices of £7 for adults and £5 for senior citizens and students down to £5 and £2.50 respectively. There will be free entry to Under 18s.

Five matchday programmes will also contain a lucky number entitling the buyer to a pair of tickets to a league game during this season. A face painter will be in attendance for younger fans and with Taunton’s new clubhouse now open, the game represents a great chance for people to sample their local football club both on and off the pitch.
