Rainworth Miners Welfare have pledged to support Great Britain's armed forces by offering free admission to Wrens' home matches to services personnel and veterans next season.

Rainworth are the second Northern Counties East League club to announce this concession, following Scarborough Athletic who made their announcement last week.

Wrens chairman Brian Reece told Chad: "This is something I've been considering for a while now. Although Scarborough maybe stole our thunder a little, we were not in a race to get in first, I applaud their decision also, and I hope other clubs may be moved to follow suit.

"As a veteran of the Household Cavalry myself, I appreciate how important it is to support our service men and women in any way we can and this is a token of our appreciation to our armed forces."

To gain free admission to matches, spectators will need to show a photo ID in the form of an MOD90 service ID card, or other photographic proof of service. Veterans can show a regimental association or Royal British Legion membership card.

Rainworth are also offering free admission to all children under 10 if accompanied by an adult next season.
