Dear members,

In the next week you will receive your 2013 membership information from the Collingwood Football Club. I am delighted to announce several new initiatives as a result of the feedback that we have received from members and supporters this year. The new initiatives are as follows:

1. Every Collingwood member who is happy to sign up to one of our convenient payment plan options will now receive a high quality membership cap and scarf free of charge.

2. Your 2013 Collingwood membership will now provide you with huge savings in your day to day living costs through the club's new partnership with Infinite Rewards in an exciting new program we are launching as Magpie Rewards. This specific program was chosen on your behalf by the club as it has average consumer savings of over $2000 per person per year.

3. There has been a lot of interest from members about our FOX FOOTY show 'The Club' which gives Collingwood supporters behind the scenes access to their club. Based on the interest and feedback, the club has created a 90 minute best of DVD which will be given to all members who sign up to one of our payment plans. This DVD otherwise retails for $39.95.

As you would have seen in the last few years the club will continue to modify our membership offerings each year based on the feedback and comments we have received from members and supporters.

The Collingwood Football Club believes there is far more to club membership than just attending games. It's about feeling connected to the club, wearing the uniform and receiving benefits that non-members can't access.

Thanks again for your ongoing support of the greatest sporting club in Australia.

Side by Side - We Stick Together
