Sky Blues has achieved family excellence status

Holly Clement 9th Jun, 2024   0

COVENTRY City is one of a record number of EFL clubs that have achieved family excellence status.

In 2023/24 over one million junior supporters enjoyed a live matchday experience at an EFL game in the Sky Bet Championship league one or league two.

This figure has been reached for the third season in succession – the EFL’s family excellence scheme has seen 68 clubs receive either gold, silver or bronze.

Sky Blues have been given the award again in recognition of the experience they are providing to young supporters.

The scheme assesses the family experience clubs provide, and rewards them with Gold, Silver and Bronze status for the quality of their match experience across a range of touchpoints including ticket purchase, matchday entertainment, accessibility, facilities and communications.

EFL chief executive, Trevor Birch said: “Attendances across the EFL are at a modern day high and it’s really encouraging to see more than one million junior supporters attend an EFL match for the third season in a row, highlighting the great work being done by EFL Clubs to encourage young people through the turnstiles.”
