How To Join

This season is the 8th season of the Young Reds. For those of you who are unaware what the Young Reds is, it is the official Junior Supporters Scheme of Stirling Albion Football Club.
It is administered by a voluntary committee, with the full backing of the Management, Players and Directors of Stirling Albion.
The annual membership fee is £5-00 and members receive several benefits . Anybody wishing more details should contact Jacky Farrell, c/o Stirling Albion Football Club.
We are pleased that the majority of members have re-enrolled this year but there are a number who have not returned their forms. If you know of anyone who has not renewed their membership, ask them to contact us. We would be interested to hear if there are any reasons why some members have not re-enrolled.

Soccer Sevens

The current block of Soccer Sevens started on 25th January at 6-00p.m. We now have 88 children registered.
However, we would emphasise that only members of the Young Reds may participate in the Soccer Sevens and participation in the Soccer Sevens is not an automatic. A separate registration form must be completed and there is an additional fee to cover costs.

We would also advise that a register will be taken each week and children should “check in” when they arrive at Forthbank.

We are also pleased to report that 16 children indicated that they would like to participate in the goalkeeping coaching offered by Scott Christie. This group has been split into 2 groups and will each receive 5 weeks of specialized coaching.

News Letter

Although the end of the season is a few weeks away, thoughts now turn to voting for the Young Reds Player of the Year award. A voting form will be included in the next newsletter which will be sent out to all members , probably in March.

Free Entry

The Young Reds will once again be sponsoring the last league match of the season against Brechin City on April 26th. All members of the Young Reds will be given free entry to this match.
A letter will be sent to all members in April enclosing the ticket which must be produced to obtain free entry.
Last season over 140 members took advantage of free entry to the Stranraer match and we hope for a similar response this season.

Young Wasps

We are pleased to learn that Alloa Athletic have formed a junior supporters club called the Young Wasps. We were recently approached to organise an event with the Young Wasps but, unfortunately, we were unable to organise a Soccer Sevens Festival before the recent league match due to the Astroturf being unavailable. However, we hope to organise something for next season.
However, 42 Young Wasps and 10 adults attended the recent league match and we were pleased to provide them with reduced admission thanks to the generosity of Stirling Albion Chairman, Peter McKenzie.
We hope that this will be the start of a long and fruitful relationship with the Young Wasps.

Player Sponsorship

This season the Young Reds are sponsoring Martin Glancy.

Admission Prices

Admission to league matches this season will be £4-00 and not £3-00 as indicated in the renewal letters which have been issued.

We apologize for any inconvenience caused.

Merchandise

This year’s free gift, a torch keyring, is now in the club shop. Members can collect it by taking along their voucher and exchange it for the gift.
