Warriors members will be able to take advantage of a range of exclusive benefits – including their own lounge – when the club celebrates the NRL Members’ Round with its first home game day of the season against St George Illawarra at Eden Park on Saturday (match day sponsor: Red Bull).
A footballing tripleheader is the focus with the Vodafone Warriors facing Illawarra in the New South Wales Cup at 12.40pm, the Vodafone Junior Warriors taking on the Dragons at 2.45pm and NRL encounter kicking off at 5.00pm.
Off the field the club’s members are in for special attention throughout the day as the Vodafone Warriors deliver on their ‘members get more’ mantra. The central feature will be the exclusive members-only lounge under the West Stand.
“We place the highest value on our members and deeply appreciate what they do for their club,” said Vodafone Warriors chief executive Wayne Scurrah.
“They’re our lifeblood, our most loyal supporters who are always there for their team.
“This weekend is a special opportunity to say thank you to them for the support they have provided leading into this 2014 season.
“Membership enables fans to feel closer to their team, show pride in their club and help the Vodafone Warriors become a stronger club.
“To everyone who has re-signed this season or become a new member, thank you very much for all you do for your club.
“To everyone else, it’s never too late to become a member.”
