Open from 6.15pm and based in the Investment Room East Stand Upper, the Family Zone is the best place for young children to sit and experience the match.
The Family Zone is a regular host to a number of exclusive and child friendly activities for the entire family to get involved with throughout the season. There is also a unique catering menu, featuring special options created specifically for children. All activities will be run pre-match, and once the action is underway, they will be carefully stored until the next home fixture.
Take a look at what we've got in store for you on Saturday:
1. Art Station
With plenty of paper, colouring templates, wordsearches and drawing materials, an arty station will be set up in the Family Zone! You will also be able to submit a match report to feature on the www.barnsleyfc.co.uk and even write a number of questions to Reds winger, Jacob Brown, on what it's like to be a professional football playing for Barnsley FC!
2. Meet Toby Tyke
No visit to Oakwell would be complete without meeting our mischievous mascot, Toby Tyke. Toby will be prowling around the Family Zone prior to kick-off, so be sure to grab him for a selfie and hi-five.
3. Giveaways
Across the course of the 2018/19 season, a number of items will be given away in the Family Zone. For Tuesday evening, we've got a few signed items scattered around... Finders keepers!
4. Experience Upgrade
At each home Sky Bet League One fixture, a number of selected supporters have received an ‘Experience Upgrade’. This has seen young fans become a member of the matchday squad, assist the with the referee's pre-match duties and even accompany a player out on to the pitch!
This week it’s a special one. Every supporter under the age of 13 who has a ticket will go in to a draw for the opportunity to watch the warm-ups from the dugout, before announcing the teams to the entire stadium!
As per last week, a member of Barnsley FC staff will be on the concourse from 7.15pm to select the lucky fan!
5. Fun & Games
Love playing pool? Reckon you can beat your family at Connect4? The Family Zone will have a number of other activities for children to engage with. This will range from a colouring station, through to table football and Connect4.
Sound good? One child (U12) and accompanying adult can secure their seats in the Family Zone for a joint total of £25! Click the link below to find out more.
