SALE Sharks have recorded record-breaking season ticket sales for next season despite the current campaign only recently ending.

Totals for renewals and new sales so far show that compared to the same period over the past few years the Sharks are currently ahead and purchases are showing no signs of slowing.

Ticketing manager Angela Traynor told the club's website: "We have been delighted by the amount of supporters eager to renew or sign up for season tickets.

"With the new players Steve Diamond has signed, it really is a season everyone is looking forward to.

"We are very pleased with the response to our season tickets and look forward to seeing supporters old and new at the AJ Bell next season."

Season tickets allow adults to watch 16 Premiership matches for less than £17 per game as well as many other benefits.

By purchasing a season ticket fans are guaranteeing a minimum saving of 25 per cent compared to buying individual tickets on a match-by-match basis.
