Round Seven Crowd
As per our Round 5 home game against the Penrith Panthers, the Club will be allocated a total capacity of 420 seats in the Western Stand for our Round 7 game against the Canberra Raiders on Saturday 27 June 2020. The Club has decided to use this capacity for a cross section of Major Corporate Partners, long-term Suite Holders, selected long-tenured Members and selected Life Members.
Our Membership staff will be contacting those selected Members from this morning to advise of the tickets and related protocols. We can confirm that the selected long-tenured Members and selected Life Members who will be invited to attend Round 7 will be different to the Members who attended Round 5 – we believe that this is the fairest system possible to ensure that all Members are provided an opportunity to attend a home game as soon as possible.
Those in attendance will have to closely follow protocols in order to adhere to the NSW Government guidelines. Attendees will be provided this information prior to Saturday.
