Tigers break membership recordrichmondfc.com.au
Wed 11 May, 2011Richmond has recorded its all-time highest membership total.
This morning, the Club eclipsed the record of 46,202 members, which was set in 2009.
The Tigers have also reached their target in the “Operation 10,000” campaign of 10,000 new members in 2011.
“These are significant achievements and, on behalf of the Club, I would like to express my sincerest thanks to our loyal fans for helping us achieve these goals,” said Richmond’s CEO Brendon Gale.
“I can't help but be humbled by the amazing support for our Club. In 2010, we made a collective promise that we would take no short cuts, on or off the field.
“Achievement of our ambitious membership goals in 2011 ensures that our members have yet again upheld their end of the bargain.”
Richmond launched its three-game membership last week, which gives fans the opportunity to attend three home games of their choice, out of the six remaining in the 2011 season.
