Quote ="Theboyem"Nicked this from the casforum. Do you think its something that we could look to offer?
This morning I got my season ticket for Adelaide United soccer team who play in the A- league and they have the following membership category for fans that live too far away to attend games.
2011/12 AUFC Out-of-Reach Membership (For Supporters living in Regional South Australia, Interstate and International Supporters) - $60 (Only eligible for those that live more than 120kms from Adelaide City Centre)
Each member that signs up gets:
* Members keyring
* Members sticker
* Supporters kit (sling bag, car window hanger, glass, pen, stress ball)
* Invitation to Members Only information night with Chairman and Head Coach (for those that are able to travel to the venue)
* Invitation to Members Only Annual General meeting and voting rights
* Exclusive Members Only online access to weekly AUFC information and video streams during the 2011/12 Hyundai A-League season
* Access to Exclusive Members polo shirt and cap
* 10% discount on AUFC merchandise when purchased at AUFC Club Store or AUFC home games
* Priority access to tickets for the 2011/12 final series * E-newsletter subscription
AUFC have an average attendance of around 10,000 and like Cas have had severe financial difficulties in the last couple of years when the main sponsor pulled out as his business was hit by the GFC. But the club had a new Board installed and have looked at new ideas such as this to generate income and increase the supporters base.'"
I think YCC do something 'distance based' as part of their membership too.
