FAMILY FRIENDLY FOOTBALL

Michael from Trentham

The recent FIFA Women's World Cup was a huge success at its venues in Australasia and world-wide via television.

The matches were called "family friendly ". The only reason for this title was the price of admission to the 64 matches played. Twenty dollars-forty dollars at Wellington Regional Stadium I presume for all but one of the nine games played and not a great deal more if any at all the other venues here and across the Tasman.

So with the pricing that low there were pleny of kids at the stadiums.

Here is the real cost of attending world class sport. Spectators at the Rugby World Cup in France starting this weekend have paid up to $1500 each per match per seat. The cost just to pre- register for a ticket to a Warriors home finals match in the NRL in a few weeks is $49.
