COVENTRY City have earned a family excellence gold award for the second successive season following the end of the 2025/26 campaign.
The EFL’s family excellence scheme awards clubs with gold, silver or bronze status based on the matchday experience they provide to families.
Coventry are one of 22 clubs to receive gold status with a record number of teams achieving family excellence recognition.
Clubs receive two visits from family assessors who evaluate the matchday experience for families.
The family assessors consider the quality of matchday activations and experience, stadium accessibility and facilities, retail and refreshments, and how the club communicates with families.
Coventry received praise for the club’s new fan village and positive feedback regarding the family zone concourse.
Coventry’s chief business officer, Nicola Ibbetson said: “We are really proud to once again receive the gold award in the EFL’s Family Excellence Scheme.
“A lot of hard work has gone in to ensuring we continue to improve the matchday experience for supporters.
“We’ve seen the introduction of a lot of new activities on a matchday, and we’ll be working hard again to further enhance the supporter experience as we strive to attract families and a diverse range of supporters to the Coventry Building Society Arena as we begin our journey in the Premier League.”
