Our first-ever ‘schools & grassroots’ game is taking place on Sunday 30th October, as we welcome Leicester City to RG2, where we welcome young football fans through the turnstiles.
What’s new about a School & Grassroots Day?
Last Sunday, we saw a record crowd attend our fixture against Arsenal, and we want to continue making our games as welcoming and accessible to all fans across Berkshire.
Last season, Reading Football Club welcomed thousands of young fans from local schools and grassroots teams to the Select Car Stadium to celebrate the 150th anniversary of our club.
Now this season, we’ll be joining with the men’s team, as we offer children, friends, family, classmates, teachers, coaches and more tickets from as little as £1 for all those aged 12 and Under, and heavily discounted tickets for adults and concessions when we take on Leicester City at the end of October!
How to qualify for the discount?
