Matchday Experience Update

Dear Knights Fans,

I’m pleased to share some exciting updates about your matchday experience here at Castle Park. We’ve been working hard to make the game day as enjoyable and seamless as possible, and I’m happy to announce a few new improvements for the upcoming matches.

New Pitch Perimeter Padding 
Safety is a priority, and we’ve installed brand-new padding around the pitch perimeter on the East terrace and De Mulder Lloyd Stand sides.  This enhancement ensures not only the safety of our players but also provides a cleaner look to the field. This work has been completed in-line with the RFU minimum standards regarding the pitch perimeter and its recommended distance from the touchlines. 

Electronic Turnstiles for Quick Entry
We know you’re eager to get inside and support the Knights, so we’ve introduced new electronic turnstiles to streamline entry. Expect a faster, more efficient way into the ground so you can focus on cheering on the team. We will be sharing videos across our social media channels next week ahead of our game vs Sale Sharks of what you can expect.

Improved Service at the Knights Fayre
We’ve taken note of your feedback and have worked to speed up service at the Knights Fayre. We will have a 2nd till in operation going forward, so whether it’s food or soft drinks, we’re committed to getting you what you need more quickly, so you spend less time in line and more time enjoying the game.

Enhanced Music Experience
To keep the energy high, we’re adding a bit of extra spirit to long match stoppages with more tailored music selections. We hope this creates a vibrant atmosphere for you to enjoy and we’ve made an extra effort to reduce the volume specifically on the east terrace after recent feedback from supporters.

Thank you for your continued support of the Doncaster Knights. I hope to see many of you for what will be a great night against Sale Sharks here next Friday 1st November 2024 in Round 1 of the Premiership Cup.

See you at Castle Park!

Best regards,

Tom Foy
Head of Commercial, Doncaster Knights
