𝗣𝗿𝗼𝗷𝗲𝗰𝘁 𝟱𝟬𝟬𝟬

The new executive board of Sholing FC are delighted to announce Project 5000. This is an exciting and innovative initiative designed to provide affordable family football for the people of Sholing and the wider Southampton area.



A family of four with a Project 5000 season ticket can watch a Sholing FC first-team league match for just £10. Under 19s with a Project 5000 ticket will have free admission to the ground.



3500 tickets have already been distributed to Oasis Mayfield Senior School, Oasis Sholing Senior School and Itchen College.



A Project 5000 season ticket will give all adults admission to league matches for only £5. We do not know of a senior club in the land that can beat this price!



Sholing FC CEO Paul Knott said : “This really is a fantastic scheme for the local community and great value for all ages. We must express our deepest gratitude to The Peter Cooper Motor Group for sponsoring Project 5000. Their financial support has been immeasurable"



Peter Cooper Motor Group Managing Director, Darren Cooper, has been hugely supportive from the inception of the scheme and for sharing our vision of affordable family football : “Sholing FC has always been a community football club and we are confident this scheme will help many more people come and watch us compete in a very competitive Southern Premier League. We are of course very aware of how difficult times have been for many people financially and we are determined to do something proactive and positive for our local community."



Thanks to The Peter Cooper Motor Group we have 5000 season tickets available. When you receive your ticket you simply scan the QR code to activate the card and you will have the opportunity to win various different prizes courtesy of The Peter Cooper Motor Group. Prizes include tickets to events at Southampton FC, The Utilita Bowl, The Mayflower Theatre, Various Golf Courses, Hotel Spas and many more.



To secure your Project 5000 season ticket please visit the Peter Cooper Motor Group dealership in Hedge End or collect it from the stadium, Monday & Wednesday 10am - 4pm.

Well if they all turn up, you won't get in :-) Hopefully they've improved the car park!

Lots of marketing, some big names behind the scenes, some decent players signed, some of the old guard still there, should be an interesting project.

Locals have never really come out in force so let's see how much of a difference it makes.

last season they averaged 292, so anything over 500 would be decent progress I think.

Mind you Totton declare an average of about 1200 and I have heard a number of people say that figure is significantly inflated so the official figure is only part of the story I guess.

There are lots of local derbies in that division, so it's probably a good time to expand. Average was probably nearer 200 excluding local games, which is still an improvement.

I went to Sholing a few times last season and I think their crowd count is reasonably accurate.
The only games I saw at Totton were cup games and those were not inflated. They probably include their season ticket holders, as Eastleigh seem to.

Get there early and it won't be an issue and don't forget new standing areas get added so the capacity will be a little bit bigger.
