Sunderland membership scheme explained, prices, ballots and how it will work | OneFootball

Sunderland have launched a membership programme for 2026/27, with sign-ups from 10am on Tuesday, July 14.

Sunderland Echo reports Season Ticket Plus is an optional £20 add-on for season-ticket holders, giving access to an away-ticket ballot drawn from 10 per cent of each allocation.

Black Cats Adult costs £48 for supporters without season tickets and includes home-ticket ballots for the Premier League, Europa League and cups, plus access to the waiting list.

Black Cats Academy, for ages four to 18, is £30 for the first child then £20 per additional child, with the Adult-tier benefits and a mascot ballot for ages six to 12.

Those joining before 8pm on Thursday, July 23 will get £10 off the full pre-season streaming package.

Ticket forwarding remains in place and Season Ticket Plus is not needed to keep existing rights. Non-members may still buy home tickets only if any reach general sale after member ballots, with availability likely limited and ballot volumes not yet set out.

One membership equals one ticket and the process for linked applications is yet to be clarified. The away ballot is reserved for Season Ticket Plus holders only. Waiting-list access requires Adult or Academy membership.

Black Cat Points continue, but 10 per cent of every away allocation, in all competitions, will be reserved for the Season Ticket Plus ballot, reducing supply via points. Further detail is required on points impact and a full breakdown before the first away sale.

Europa League home ticketing details have not been confirmed.
