Hornets work with Mencap & the Co-op in record bid!!

July 10th 2011 could be a date for the record books as we aim to set a Championship attendance record!!!

Hornets in conjunction with competition sponsors The Co-operative and their Official 2011 Charity Mencap, we are making the Workington Town clash on July 10th a special Co-operative/Mencap Day.

As well as setting a competition record attendance, we aim to raise a sizable amount for Mencap in the process.

Tickets for the day are a donation of £5(£4 goes to Mencap) for adults and £3(£2 goes to Mencap) for concessions.

This is an ambitious project but all parties are determined to make the event a huge success.
In terms of ambition Spotland Stadium holds 10,000 people and that is the target we have set ourselves!!
We are not doing this on our own, the Co-operative will be selling tickets, as will Mencap. We also hope the entire Rugby League community gets behind us on this, we are sure they will!

Tickets go on sale shortly. This is a real opportunity to put Hornets on the map, please get behind us on this.

A special thanks must go to Hornets Director Allen Brett whose idea the game is and thanks to Allens links in the Co-operative movement he has been able to turn this idea into reality.

Thats a brilliant thing for your club to do, outstanding efforts. Hopefully we can put some buses on from Workington and I for one will be hoping to turn up.

Heard at our fans forum last night that the co-op will be paying for some buses to get workington fans down for the match.
