Renegades Rehoused
After many years on a field at the Royal County of Berkshire Sports and Social Club in Sonning, the Renegades are moving home to Palmer Park Stadium for the 2010 season and beyond.
Over the most productive season in Renegades history, the team has effectively increased their fan base and want to build on that success with a better fan experience. The Renegades Management believe moving to a stadium will allow greater growth and exposure of both the team and the sport of American Football in general.
Palmer Park stadium is located in the heart of Reading, easily accessible from the M4 motorway and by public transport (so Renegades fans can be kind to the environment whilst supporting the team). With discussions under way with Reading Superstars Cheerleaders and a local marching band, the stadium setting will provide an excellent game day experience for all, both on and off the field.
General Manager, Oliver Raffle comments, "The successes of our organisation is noticed by the local council and the community here in Reading; and to honour that support, it made sense to rehouse our organisation to a stadium facility."
The organisation hopes this will attract a greater fan base at home games for both Senior and Youth teams, as well as increase the potential for sponsorship for local businesses.
