York City are set to launch their new season ticket package imminently with kids likely to be quids in.

The club are ready to announce price reductions for all under-18s and they will again be designating two matches as "kid-for-a-quid" games next season.

For the third year running the club has frozen the price of adult season tickets and once again there will be a period in which fans can buy discounted tickets.

Season tickets bought between June 1 and July 14 with give supporters a saving equal to free admission to six games for an adult, and eight free games for under-18s, over the season,

In addition to the guaranteed cup tickets and free entry to all reserve games, next term's season ticket holders will have the added benefits of free travel club membership, 10 per cent discount at the club shop and also savings at local shops.

City's division three match against Cheltenham at Whaddon Road on Saturday, will be a 'kids for £1' game and there are still places available on the supporters' coach.

And the club are to launch their new season ticket packages for the 2000-2001 campaign with a new look - making a change to the club logo.

While the new look is not drastically different, the logo will carry the legend "The Minstermen" below it rather than founded 1922.

"We felt that the founded 1922 meant nothing really, where as 'The Minstermen' does," said club secretary Keith Usher.
