Scotland’s three professional rugby teams – Border Reivers, Edinburgh Gunners and Glasgow Warriors – have launched their great value season tickets.

The ‘Early Bird’ offer, which includes all Celtic League and Heineken Cup home fixtures, as well as the pre-season friendlies is available until 15 August so fans should sign up quickly to make sure they guarantee the best deals and their own seats at Netherdale, Murrayfield and Hughenden. Not only that, but when they buy an adult season ticket, they can get a child’s season ticket absolutely free, PLUS their ticket gains them free entry to all Scotland age grade internationals.

Keith Grainger, Scottish Rugby Commercial & Marketing Director in charge of the pro-teams, said: “What the three teams are offering here is exceptional value for money with the Early Bird prices. Supporters can save up to £111 at the top level purely by buying their season ticket before 15 August. Scottish pro-team matches are great events for all the family and are readily affordable, especially if the Early Bird offers are taken up. Students, for example, would be daft to pass up the amazing £25 deal – what a bargain!”

Supporters can get the chance to see their favourite Scotland players as well as the stars of the RBS 6 Nations, not to mention some All Blacks and Pacific Island leading lights for as little as £99 for the Gunners and Warriors and only £79 for the Reivers for the season – that’s an amazing £7 (£6 for the Reivers) per game – all that plus KIDS GO FREE (with every adult season ticket)!

That means a family of four could watch the Reivers for as little as £158 – only £11 per game for all four or under £3 each!

In one of the best value deals around in any sporting or entertainment event in Scotland, students and under 18s ‘Early Bird’ offer means that for only £25 (£19 for Reivers’ games), they can have a full season of watching the likes of Chris Paterson, Jon Petrie, Chris Cusiter, Gavin Henson, Brian O’Driscoll, Johnny Wilkinson, Xavier Garbajosa and Jason Robinson for less than £2 per match – a bargain by anyone’s standards!
