PARK AVENUE have announced the details of their membership scheme for the 2017/18 season.

The National North club, owned outright by supporters and the wider community, is aiming to increase the number of members ahead of their sixth successive campaign in the current division.

But existing members must renew their membership after those already part of the club received last year’s membership, which runs yearly from June 1 to May 31, for free.

Avenue’s club officials are elected by its members, while fans can also put themselves forward for a position on the board – and in order to vote for its governing board members must pay £10 to renew their membership.

Supporters who purchase a season ticket for the upcoming season will receive a £5 discount on membership, while becoming part of the club also allows for a five per cent discount on merchandise purchased in the club’s shop.

As part of plans to expand into more of the local community, Avenue are seeking volunteers to assist with a range of tasks to help the club move forward. A launch day is planned for Saturday, June 17.
