After receiving a fantastic response to our VIP Packages Initiative last season, the Club is pleased to announce that this exciting initiative will be looking to go from strength to strength again this season.
This venture enables local children with autism and other learning difficulties, to experience live football – with some of them attending a professional sporting event for the very first time. Originally launched last November, following its success, the Club is delighted to continue this initiative for 2023/24, with applications now open for a number of home fixtures throughout August and September.
TUAFC is proud to be recognised as an all-inclusive, family-orientated Club, and this link-up will again see the Club playing an active and supportive role at the very heart of the Torbay community.
Working together with Play Torbay and Torbay Council Children’s Services, the Club will be providing VIP tours to the children ahead of each match, enabling them to meet members of the Club’s footballing staff and off-field team and familiarise themselves with the stadium and their surroundings prior to the big day.
Following the tour, the children will have access to a reserved room specially set aside for them to take part in structured activities, including art, crafts and games. In addition to this, children will also be given Gift Vouchers to spend in the Club Shop and Food Kiosk, to make the day even more memorable!
Matchdays will see the children invited to Plainmoor as guests of the Club, and enjoy the thrills and spills that only live sport can provide, as well as giving them a unique opportunity to build a lifelong passion for Torquay United.
As well as working together with Play Torbay and Torbay Council Children’s Services, TUAFC would like to thank the Torquay United Supporters Trust (TUST) for assisting with the Club’s latest community initiative.
