2007/08 Ticket Prices FAQ
26th June 2007

How much are the season tickets?
Season tickets have been held at the same price again this season.  Adults will cost £165, Children and concessions (students, OAPs etc) will cost £121 and a family ticket will cost £550 (2 adults and 2 children or 1 adult and 3 children).  These represent huge savings for fans over buying individual game tickets.  Taking into account the price of purchasing individual tickets, buying a season ticket will give you 11 games free over the course of a season (at Adult prices).  An adult saves £135, a child saves £29, and a family ticket saves a massive £200. 

How can I pay for my ticket?
You can pay for your ticket at the Pavilions using cash or cards.

Will I really get in to see 25 games?
Until the fixtures are released (week beginning 2nd July) we can’t tell fans any other information than, yes, we hope there will be 25 home games during the season.  More will become apparent as soon as the fixtures are released.

Are seats allocated on a first-come first-served basis?
The seats will be sold in three distinct groups.  To begin with, last years’ season ticket holders will be able to buy their tickets from Monday 2nd July.  Official Raiders Supporters’ Club members will then be able to buy tickets from Monday July 9th.  Finally, season tickets go on general release from Thursday July 12th onwards. 

If you had a season ticket last year and want to keep the same seats this year, this should be ok, as long as you buy them before tickets go on wider release. 

Can I book seats anywhere in the arena?
Apart from areas that are reserved by the club for corporate seating, yes, you can book any other seats in the arena. 

Is it true that I get other benefits?
Yes, we really want to give something back to the fans for your loyalty and support.  Therefore, this season fans will receive the following: 

bullet

A free Plymouth Raiders T-shirt

bullet

Free entry into a season ticket holder’s draw for a framed players shirt at the end of the season

bullet

Free entry to all development games at the YMCA Kitto Centre
(you have to take your season ticket with you)

bullet

First purchase option for all BBL Finals tickets

What other ticketing initiatives are you planning?
We hope to be able to release details of these in due course.  We are in the middle of talks with different organisations around the city to get discounts off of entry.  We will also be releasing information about birthday party packages. 

Aren’t you just trying to get more money out of the fans by putting up the price of individual tickets?
Not at all, and we want fans to know that putting the price up was not an easy decision to make.  Under our current budget, we realised that we have probably gone as far as we can go in terms of results and league position.

Plymouth Raiders aren’t satisfied with where we have got to – we want to push ahead, be in contention for trophies more regularly and bring you even better quality basketball.  This unfortunately costs more money.  We hope that when you see the team that Coach Stronach is putting together, you will agree that the extra £2 per game for an adult is worth it. C oncessions and Children’s individual prices have remained the same at £6.  A bigger wage bill has to be paid for somehow and hopefully a price rise now will mean we wont have to increase it again next season.
