Thanks For All Your Help Pat

In developing the award, The Football League commissioned an independent assessment of the family experience at all 72 League clubs during the 2007/08 season through the use of "mystery shopper" families.

Two families attended our match against Hartlepool United on the 8th December, one family as home fans and one as away fans. Each family assessed the family experience on offer which was measured by taking into account levels of service in areas ranging from the ease of purchase of tickets and, helpfulness of stewards to ticket pricing and child protection policies.

"Yeovil Town Football Club is thrilled to have been awarded the Family Excellence Award from the Football League. she said

"As you all know we were shortlisted for the Family Club of the Year back in March and for a Club that has only been in the League 5 years that was a huge achievement.

"Our supporters are a credit to this Football Club and I would personally like to thank them for all their support this season and for being some of the friendliest in the League which hasn't gone unnoticed.
