Bury Football Club is extremely proud to announce the launch of ‘Junior Shakers’, our brand new club membership scheme for our youngest fans.
We would like to thank everyone who entered our recent badge design competition, we had lots of fantastic entries, and it was difficult to choose one! Congratulations goes to 10 year old Harry Noone whose design was selected to be the official badge of our Junior Shakers. This has been digitally enhanced and sent to our manufacturers at Hope & Glory.
You can now sign up for annual membership here: https://buy.stripe.com/28oeVmb7h76q2n6cMM
Membership for the full year, beginning on the day you sign up, costs just £30 per member. As well as a whole host of bespoke merchandise and other membership benefits (see below for the full list), our Junior Shakers will all be given the opportunity to be a mascot at one of our men’s or women’s home games at Gigg Lane this season.
Member packs will be ready for collection at home games from Gigg Lane by the end of the month. If you do not live within the vicinity or want to join from further afield, email us to arrange postal delivery in the UK or abroad (extra charges will apply). Once you have signed up, you will be contacted to arrange a suitable date to be a mascot during the season.
Please note, this is now the only way to mascot at Gigg Lane. We have been asked about creating a paid mascot opportunity but have decided we want to give as many children as possible the opportunity to mascot and feel that the annual membership fee for Junior Shakers offers excellent value for money.
Local junior football teams and school teams and classes will still be given the opportunity to be flag-bearers at our men’s or women’s games at Gigg Lane and interested managers or teachers can contact our new community development manager to arrange this and join a waiting list for a place (at communityofficer@buryfc.co.uk).
Initially, teams and schools who have not already been flag-bearers or mascots at Gigg Lane over the past year will be offered this opportunity. All mascots and flag-bearers will be given free entry to Gigg Lane on the day but must be accompanied by a full-paying adult if they are under the age of 13.
