SEASON ticket holders at Hartlepool United can win £15,000 next season.

Following the success of last season's initiative, when almost 6,000 were bought for £100, the club has today launched their offer for next season.

Priced at £155 for the full campaign, an increase of £55 on this season's offer, (it works out at £6.74 per game), the club will have a prize draw for all adult holders have the chance to win up to £15,000.

The value of the draw goes up with the amount of season tickets sold - 3,000 sales means a £5,000 top prize, 4,000 sales offers £10,000 and breaking the 5,000 barrier offers £15,000.

The draw also includes a second prize of £3,000 and third prize of £2,000.

Children's tickets - at £50 - will be entered into a draw to receive a club VIP mascot package.

Pools won a Football League award for their campaign last summer, titled 'Are You Coming To Pools?' and, after such a success in lifting attendances at Victoria Park, hope for a similar response this time around.

"Last year we made football affordable again and we were delighted with the response of our fans,'' said chief executive Russ Green.

"It's a great sight to see the Vic full again. Our prices are still less than half what they were a couple of years ago, you can't even watch local non-league football at these prices, and now we are offering a big incentive to supporters.

"Our owners, IOR, have invested heavily in the club and brought success and stability. Now we are rewarding fans with the chance to win £15,000.''

Supporters have until Tuesday, July 31 to buy tickets to be entered into the draw.
