Return to Redfern 2009 'Members
Only' Trial Match
12 Sep 2008
The South Sydney Rabbitohs are returning to Redfern Oval to play the Wests Tigers in the 'Return to Redfern Members Only' trial match on Sunday 8 February 2009.
The Sunday afternoon trial match between these two traditional Clubs will be played at the Rabbitohs spiritual home of Redfern Oval, which will be South Sydney's main training base at the brand new, state-of-the-art facility. This will be the first time the Rabbitohs have played another NRL Club on Redfern Oval since 1996.
With ground capacity for this game being limited to 5,000, tickets are sure to sell out very quickly, and the only way fans can access the match is to become a Ticketed Member of their Club. Rabbitohs Ticketed Members will have access to 3,300 tickets for this match, with Wests Tigers Members having access to 1,000 tickets. The remaining 700 tickets will be allocated to past players, club sponsors and player family allocations.
"This is an exciting initiative that our Clubs have undertaken and it really puts a spotlight on why it is important to become a Ticketed Member of your Club," Rabbitohs CEO Shane Richardson said.
"We're looking forward to playing on the turf at Redfern Oval again, and we're also looking forward to hosting a fellow traditional Sydney Club in the Wests Tigers. The Rabbitohs have played some fantastic matches against both the Balmain Tigers and the Western Suburbs Magpies on Redfern Oval over the years and this will be a day to recognise the history of the ground.
"In saying that, we will also be showcasing the state-of-the-art facilities at Redfern Oval that will give our team the best training set-up in Sydney.
"Ticketed Membership is the best way that you can support your Club, and by becoming a Ticketed Member you get access to exclusive events such as the Return to Redfern trial match. We're very excited about this event, and we urge all our Members and supporters to sign up for Ticketed Membership and to purchase your Return to Redfern ticket as early as possible so as not to miss out."
