I Pledged in 2011. Do I need to pledge again for 2012?
YES! All 2012 members need to pledge again to be counted towards to the 12,000 target. That goes for all adults, juniors, concessions & students whether the memberships are for Terrace or Main Stand.
The only exception to this rule are our Red, Amber, Basic Black and Classic Black members. As these are long term memberships, you have automatically been registered as a pledge and will count towards our 12,000 target.
Can I pledge more than once?
Fans can pledge for multiples of tickets for friends and friends. If you would like to add an additional pledge at a later date this can be done on the same basis as explained in the "How can I pledge?" section. Just remember, a pledge is ultimately a contractual obligation to purchase.
What happens if non-supporters pledge to boost numbers in an attempt to discredit the scheme?
We have in place a complex system which will weed out any fraudulent pledges.
How can I help the Bulls get to 12,000 pledges?
We are always grateful that our fans are looking for ways to support us and volunteer their time so we have come up with a few suggestions of how you can help us:
• PLEDGE YOURSELF!
If all our current membership holders renew using the pledge system, we will already be over 90% to reaching our target.
• GET FRIENDS, FAMILY, WORK COLLEAGUES OR ACQUAINTANCES TO PLEDGE
If all our current members managed to persuade just one person pledge for 2012 and follow through with their purchase, we will generously surpass our 12,000 target and potentially reach the ambitious 15,501 + figure.
• PICK UP A CAR STICKER AND SPREAD THE WORD AS YOU DRIVE
• DOWNLOAD THE PDF POSTER FROM THE WEBSITE AND PROMOTE THE PLEDGE
Many people have offered their services to distribute leaflets in the area in which they live or work. Whilst we really appreciate the support offered, we have already enlisted the services of a professional distribution company as we feel this would be the most appropriate way to co-ordinate such a mammoth task to get the required return.
The most powerful marketing tool for any campaign is word of mouth and this is the most important way our supporters can help us reach our target so SPREAD THE PLEDGE!
How can I keep updated with how many people have pledged?
In construction is a Pledge-o-Meter at Odsal Stadium, Home of the Bulls, facing Rooley Avenue.
We are also running an online pledge-o-meter at the top of our website which we will update at regular intervals.
The Telegraph & Argus will also be running a series of updates on the number of pledges received.
At our promotional events around the city, we will also be keeping you updated.
Can I purchase more tickets at the same price after the pledge deadline
has passed?
Yes. Between Monday 19th September and Friday 31st October, you can purchase as many tickets as you require at the released pricing structure.
This pricing structure will only change after Friday 31st October when membership will increase by 50%.
However, we need to get in as many pledges as possible NOW to ensure we are able to give YOU the best price.
I am currently a Bradford Bulls member and would like to renew my seat for 2012. How can I do this?
All current member's seats will be reserved until Friday 22nd October. Payment for these seats MUST be made before this date. After this time, they will be released for general sale.
This all sounds like a fantasic offer! How can I pledge?
Pledging is simple:
Call the ticket office on 08448 711 490 (option 1)
Fill in a pledge form and post it in one of our pledge boxes at Odsal Stadium
Text the word "PLEDGE" to 60777
Fill in an online form by clicking here
AND REMEMBER, ALL BULLS MEMBERS RECIEVE THE USUAL GREAT BENEFITS SUCH AS:
• A personal rewards programme
• 50% off Magic Weekend Tickets
• 500 points on your teamcard to spend in the Bulls Megastore on the NEW 2012 replica shirt.
