Peri-Match Activity

This section is devoted to what goes on around the match itself. For most spectators there are many activites to be engaged in before kick-off and during the half-time interval. A large proportion will purchase a programme and possibly a raffle and/or �golden goal� ticket. Then there are the team changes to take note of. At most Non League grounds these will be posted somewhere - usually on a white or chalk board, or maybe on a piece of paper pinned on a wall.

During the half-time interval supporters tend to browse through their programme, visit the loo, go to the bar, or visit the snack bar for a cup of tea and a burger. One of the joys of Non League football is that it is actually possible to do all of these things. And if you�re really lucky, you may get a hot drink in a proper mug!
