In a ground-breaking move for local football, every resident in Thornaby-On-Tees is being offered a fully funded season ticket to watch over 40 Thornaby FC men and women's home league games for the 2026/27 season.
Thanks to an unprecedented partnership between Thornaby FC and Thornaby Town Council, this is believed to be the first time funded football season tickets have been made available at this scale.
With over 10,000 households and approximately 24,000 people eligible, the scheme marks the largest single community initiative in the football club's history.
Eligible residents must act quickly to secure their funded season tickets before the summer deadline of July 31st.
To qualify, you must reside in a household paying the Thornaby Town Parish Council precept and, importantly, tickets can be claimed for each individual member of that household.
For those living outside the eligible boundary, Thornaby FC will be announcing its paid season ticket and matchday admission prices tomorrow.
Residents should complete the online claim form and then bring proof of their council tax to the club upon collection.

"I bought a toothbrush, some toothpaste, a flannel for my face
Pyjamas, a hairbrush, new shoes and a case
I said to my reflection, let's get out of this place
Past the church and the steeple, the laundry on the hill
Billboards and the buildings. memories of it still
Keep calling"
