This weekend's match against Northampton is the second Walsall FC School Partners game of the season.
The initiative aims to introduce the next generation of Saddlers supporters, and through the efforts of Walsall FC's Community Programme, we have 1072 fans who will fill the Community Stand tomorrow.
These fans have received tickets through their Walsall FC Partner School at reduced prices for this one-off game. Over £500 has been raised for local schools.
Since School Partners began in 2008, nearly 20,000 tickets have been sold, with more than £10,000 donated back to local schools.
Adam Davy, Community Director, said: “We’re really pleased with the response to our second School Partners game this season.
“Along with the club’s ticket offer, it’ll mean a great crowd and a brilliant atmosphere for Saturday’s important game.”
Schools can get various benefits by partnering with Walsall FC and the Community Programme.
Your school can get PE lessons run by their qualified coaches, as well as cashback on after school clubs held by their staff.
There is also first option on Walsall FC player appearances, and you will receive a signed football from the club.
Other benefits include ground tours, ticket offers on selected Walsall fixtures and an invitation to a national school 6-a-side competition.
