Glenavon FC has launched the Premier Club, a fan‑membership scheme that lets supporters directly fund the first‑team budget for as little as £5 a week. This initiative aims to turn loyal backing into tangible resources, helping manager Michael O’Connor build a squad capable of challenging for promotion.
What is the Premier Club?
The Premier Club is a tiered membership program offering fans a seat at the heart of club decisions. Members contribute weekly fees that flow straight into the playing budget, meaning every pound supports player wages, training equipment, and match‑day preparations. In return, supporters gain access to exclusive benefits that deepen their connection with Glenavon FC.
How does it benefit Glenavon FC?
Beyond the financial boost, Premier Club members enjoy monthly prize draws, a 10% discount at the Bedeck Suite Bar, and two online meetings each season with manager Michael O’Connor. These sessions provide insight into tactics, squad progress, and a rare chance to voice opinions directly to the coaching staff. The model mirrors successful fan‑ownership schemes elsewhere, turning passion into performance.
How can fans join today?
Signing up is straightforward. Fans can visit the Glenavon FC office on weekdays between 9:30 am and 12:30 pm, email the club at [email protected], or enroll online via the Premier Club page on the official website. The process requires only a simple weekly payment, and members instantly become part of an inner circle at Mourneview.
What’s next for the Lurgan Blues?
With the Premier Club now active, Glenavon FC looks to translate supporter investment into on‑field results. The club’s next fixture is against Newington Youth at home on 2026-09-19, a match that could showcase the impact of fan‑funded enhancements. As the season unfolds, Premier Club members will watch closely, hoping their contributions help the team climb the table and return to the top flight.
