Bringing supporters, players, and the wider community closer to the heart of Newark Town Football Club is the aim of its new membership scheme.

The initiative invites fans and residents to become part of the club’s future.

For £10 they can become a shareholder of Newark’s supporter-owned club.

Members will enjoy a range of benefits, including:

The right to attend and vote at the annual meeting.

The chance to stand for election to the board or vote for fellow members.

An official membership card and share certificate, signifying their recognised connection to Newark Town FC.

In addition, members will receive a triannual newsletter, providing updates on club news, community events, and progress across both the senior and youth sections.

Matchdays will also become even more rewarding, with members enjoying a 10% discount on hot food and drinks at the Tom Mann Pavilion.

Membership secretary Keir Gale said: “This membership scheme is a big step forward for Newark Town Football Club. It’s about giving our supporters a real voice and recognising the importance of community involvement in grassroots football.

“Every membership directly supports the continued growth of the club and helps us invest in the next generation of local players.”

Memberships are now open and the club is encouraging supporters of all ages to get involved.
