Stoke Match Experience

Information

Package overview

Stoke City FC has several Irish players in their squad such as Jonathan Walters, Marc Wilson, Glenn Whelan and, not forgetting Rory Delap. We now offer an opportunity which your kids have never had before!

Imagine going to a match and being part of the half-time atmosphere by having a Pitchside Parade! Your team can be in their own club gear/tracksuits as they do a lap around the pitch while the PA announcer introduces them to the crowd! Or, your club could be the official Guard of Honour at the start of a match. Perhaps you might prefer to attend the match and afterwards be invited to meet the Man of the Match, have pictures taken and grab autographs!
