Under the generic title of “Empowerment of Supporters’ Clubs and Peñistas”, Athletic publicly announced the new strategy it proposes to recognize these red-and-white fans as active agents of the club with an expanded rights related to goals. The Bilbao club, according to a note released from Ibaigane, met today with representatives of the International Federation of Supporters Clubs to send them a proposal that establishes the foundations of a new relationship with the Club.
“Since the creation of the first clubs in the middle of the last century, the role played by club members has been so prominent for almost 75 years that they have no definite rank within the athletic community. Also also the supporters of Club Athletic , the Gazteabonos and, naturally, the members know their rights and obligations in their relationship with the Club, the growth and importance of the club member requires a regulation that empowers their figure ,” they said from the red-and-white creature.
The proposal that Athletic will present for debate to representatives of Supporters’ Clubs includes various points related to regulations (“drafting of rules that normalize the rights and obligations of Supporters’ Clubs and supporters’ club as the new team of the Club” ), transformation (“clubs and supporters of supporters must be active agents in the Club’s transformation strategy. To do this, they will have tools that facilitate and respect the freedom of management and its internal functioning”) and rights (“including the proposal a priority for the supporter over the period of purchasing tickets for San Mamés. A priority 48 hours higher than Club Athletic members and has a minimum quota of 460 tickets”).
On the level of obligations, Athletic emphasizes that “as a starting point, the Club considers it important to prove a link between the Club and Athletic that allows the Club to grant the club member specific rights in fair to be written on the rights of the members of the Club.” other Club groups”. The measure at this level is “among Peñas de Bizkaia supporters the percentage of Club Athletic members or members reaches 30%; 20% or 15% depending on the size of the Supporters’ Club in the rest of the State; and the 5% in international clubs, which will receive assistance from the Club.”
The initiative is also considering the creation of a club membership card. This is how Athletic explained its idea in this regard. “Creation of an updated census of supporters’ clubs that allows each member to make their rank official and exercise their rights, not only about the direct acquisition (through an ad hoc platform) of tickets , but also for their discounts at AC Museoa or for free access to Lezama. To do this, the club member will have his official nominative and free card, in digital format.”
