Reds supporters will get the opportunity to meet members of our squads this summer at Oakwell for our special, FREE Meet The Players event! On Thursday 22nd August, 1:30pm-3:30pm, the entire Men's First Team squad and staff here at Oakwell will be in the East Stand concourse for an action-packed afternoon. Furthermore, members of our Barnsley FC Women's First Team squad and staff will be in attendance. Our very own super-middleweight British and Commonwealth champion Callum Simpson will also be stopping by, along with live music from the 'MaryArchie Band'! Outside in the East Stand car park, our fantastic team over at Barnsley FC Community Trust will be running a number of challenges from 1:30pm, including mini-games within the concourse itself throughout the duration of the event. Refreshments will also be available, including a special 'Kiosk Takeover', serving up street food such as loaded fries and nachos. CEO Jon Flatman said, “We are really excited to open the doors up and let the fans come in and meet the squads and the backroom team at Oakwell. Over the course of the year, in collaboration with the Fan Advisory Board, we will be putting in on several events to give supporters a chance to get behind the scenes. We look forward to seeing you as many of you as possible at Oakwell next week.” Admission is free, and parking will be available in the South Stand car park free of charge. We look forward to seeing you all down at the East Stand on Thursday! Continue reading...
