Cougars flag up TV success. : Fri Jun 12, 2009 2:24 pm
Keighley Cougars have two televised Co-operative Championship One fixtures in 2009 - both the away and home games against Dewsbury Rams.
The Cougars wanted their fans to have something extra special to make their presence felt at both games so they commissioned a brand new fans’ flag.
Cougars General Manager Helen Carter said: “At many of the clubs where SkySports’ cameras have been for the televised Thursday night Championship games there have been increased attendances.
“That steps up the match-day atmosphere for the fans. We wanted to give the Cougar fans something to wave and join in the fun when we play the Rams.”
The flags cost £4 each and can be purchased from the Keighley Cougars shop at Cougar Park.
And as an added bonus if fans buy their flags at the home game against Rochdale Hornets on Sunday, June 28 they will qualify for a £1 discount off their admission cost to the televised game at Cougar Park against the Rams on Thursday, July 30.
“That has to be great value for the fans,” added Helen.
