If you slot the ball between the posts, you’ll win flights for two people to the Cayman Islands! If you’d like to give it a try, please register your interest here by midday on Thursday 7 October.

AFTER THE GAME

  • Under current PGB guidelines, players are unfortunately not allowed to interact with supporters within close range. This includes signing autographs, taking people’s phones for selfies and getting within two metres distance. While these restrictions are in place, we ask that you please respect these rules and do not put players in a difficult situation by asking for autographs and selfies or calling them over at the end of the game. Once the restrictions are lifted, the squad will be delighted to go back to interacting with you, once it is deemed safe to do so.

  • Post-match entertainment is back! Head to the Dugout bar after the game where there will be live music and a Q&A. Unfortunately, those within the Red Zone (e.g. all match squad and coaches) are unable to take part in the Q&A under current guidelines, so for the time being the Q&A will be with non-match squad players. The match squad are also not allowed to be within the Dugout bar after the game.
    To access the Dugout bar, supporters will need to leave the stadium via their closest exit and make their way to Gate B. Access to the Dugout bar is subject to capacity and on a first come first served basis. Supporters in the Platinum areas have direct access to the Dugout bar from their seats.
