Tickets are on sale for Bristol City’s Community Match against Western League Division One side Hengrove Athletic on Sunday, July 10th (2pm).
For the past three years City have begun pre-season with a friendly match against a local amateur team, and all profits from the games are split evenly between the Community Trust and the host clubs.
Ashton & Backwell United, Portishead Town, Keynsham Town and Brislington have all benefited in recent seasons, and Hengrove are the latest to host City’s first team in the now annual Community Match.
Hengrove play at Norton Lane in Whitchurch, where the capacity will be set at 1,909. They lifted the Les Phillips Cup in May, having beaten three Western League Premier clubs en route, including fellow finalists Willand Rovers.
Hengrove’s squad is packed full of City fans, so this will be a dream come true for the squad, who all play voluntarily.
Tickets will be priced at £7 for adults and £5 for under-16s. They will be sold on a first-come, first-served basis.
Previous Community Matches have always proved popular among City supporters, who are encouraged to pre-book their tickets online to avoid disappointment.
Parking options are available on Norton Lane for £4 on a first-come, first-served basis.
Season Tickets for the 2022/23 campaign are selling at a record pace, with more than 9,000 supporters already committed.
