Wigan Athletic Supporters Club Membership 2010-2011

Wigan Athletic Supporters Club has been running for over 50 years now, providing travel to Wigan Athletic first team away games for its members. Last season we clocked up over 4500 miles, taking over 4,000 fans to away games and we are prepared for more next season. We are a non profit making organisation and that allows us to keep the costs low for travelling to away games.

Membership of the Supporters Club also allows entrance to the Wigan Athletic Supporters Club Bar, which provides a safe place for fans to go a couple of hours to chat and meet before most home games. The bar is located opposite the DW Stadium in the Robin Park Sports Centre. The bar serves food, drinks (alcoholic and non alcoholic), has Sky Sports (so if there is an early match it will generally be shown); members can book for away travel, renew or apply for membership and details of any Supporters Club Events are also available there. Last year our successful Annual Dinner saw the reunion of the Freight Rover Trophy winning side of 1985.

This season the Supporters Club has over 1200 members and every year our support is growing. Join us early this season and qualify for a free limited edition Wigan Athletic Supporters Club metal pin badge. This offer is only available to the first 200 people who join us for the 2010/11 season. This web site is also a great place to come to keep up to date with the latest news, plus an area where you can add your news or viewpoint, all you need to do is register.

Every member is issued with their own membership card which will be needed for entry to the Supporters Bar and for booking and travelling on Supporters Club Coaches.

Members of WASC have the following entitlements:

• Executive coach travel with Mayfair Travel to each Wigan AthleticFirst Team away fixture
• Access to WASC organised events such as Fans Forums or Special Dinners
• Travel on specially organised weekend trips to certain away games
• Exclusive entry into the Supporters Club Bar opposite the JJB Stadium. Sky Sports shown with any early/late kick offs. Beer, soft drinks and food available from the private bar.
• All of the above are for members only (subject to availability)

Cost of membership: £5.00.

Memberships can be applied for or renewed by calling in the Supporters Bar before home fixtures or by Clicking the ‘Pay Now’ with PayPal below.

The web site is the best way to keep in touch, both with new information about away travel dates and prices, news about Wigan Athletic and please use the site to put your views across – register on the right now.


 

After a group of young lads, who travelled with us to the Tottenham Hotspur for the FA Cup game, abused fellow travellers and drank alcohol on the coach, the Supporters Club have been forced to stop memberships being ‘bought on the day’ and from Mayfair Travel. In future any people who come to the Supporters Club Bar on home match days, will have to provide ID of some form (eg Driving License, passport etc), to join the Supporters and Travel Club. We have to reiterate that alcohol is not allowed on Supporters Club coaches and anybody drinking alcohol, or showing rude and abusive behaviour, will not be allowed back on the coach, no matter where they are offloaded and the police will be notified of their actions.
