Wales Rugby League launch 2013 'Team Wales'
10th of January 2013
WALES Rugby League have launched a brand new initative for next year's Rugby League World Cup aimed at you - the fans and supporters of our great game.
'Team Wales' is a new membership drive that will see your name actually be on the field with our Welsh stars when the Rugby League World Cup kicks-off at Cardiff's iconic Millennium Stadium on October 26.
That is because the first 1,000 fans who become Team Wales members, for just £15 per year, will have their name embossed on the national shirts when head coach Iestyn Harris leads his men out onto the pitch to start their campaign against Italy in Cardiff.
Wales Rugby League general manager Mark Rowley said Team Wales was about engaging fans behind the national squad, who take on the United States at Wrexham's Glydnwr University Racecourse Ground on November 3 in the second of their group games and round things off with a big clash against the Cook Islands at The Gnoll, Neath, on November 10.
Rowley said: "Wales Rugby League is a family and we want everyone to join in and be part of the family. All the boys will want the backing of our fans and everyone in Wales and this campaign will put our members at the heart of the squad.
"The first 1,000 fans who join will have the unique opportunity to be on the pitch as part of Team Wales which has only been done in football before by the giants of the game like Real Madrid.
"There are a lot of other benefits that membership of Team Wales bring but to actually be a part of the Rugby League World Cup is something pretty special."
Not only will members have their names on the Welsh shirts but there are a number of other fantastic benefits to joining the Team Wales family.
They include:
A monthly newsletter packed full of updates, features and offers from Wales Rugby League
Ten per cent off Wales Rugby League merchandise.
Matchday pacakges from North Wales Crusaders and South Wales Scorpions
Pin badges
Special offers every month
Open days twice a year when you can meet the players in camp
And discounts from key partners of the Wales Rugby League.
