Barrow crowds initiative

[headtackle]

Our League reporting that Barrow are trying to boost crowd numbers to get the buzz back in the stadium

Apparently they have given a free junior season ticket to every youngster in South Cumbria and have a promotion that if an adult brings 2 kids they get a £5 food voucher

Have to say hats off to them. Hope it works as getting kids back in grounds watching live sport rather than e sport needs to happen

Barrow also need to push hard to make sure they don't lose out to the Barrow FC who look like being promoted to the football league

Good luck Barrow

I think they should go back to the donkey poo lottery game to get people back through the turnstiles.

I love visiting Barrow, if ever a stadium truly sits in the moniker "Rugby League Raw" it is Craven Park, is it still called Craven Park?

Me too , rarely in architecture can you see a towns heritage , the stadium built with shipbuilding skills

Also built on the footprint of a Victorian jute works. Some of the brickwork of the outer wall dates back to the 1880s at least. There used to be a railway branch line running behind what's now the main stand. The old ruined redbrick building by the main entrance was one part of those works and you can still see the bricked-up opening where they'd load the sacks onto the railway wagons!
