Hi to you all.

It has been great to see such big crowds at iceSheffield over the last few games including a record breaker attendance for the 17 goal thriller against Peterborough!

A huge thank you from myself, all the players and management to all of you for coming along and helping us with our promotions by spreading the word and bringing so many friends and family with you. There is a real buzz about the club and we are keeping up the momentum with some very attractive offers, Christmas giveaways and festive fun over the December and January matches.

This Saturday 13th we play Bracknell Bees face off 7.30pm then on Sunday 14th December we take on Wightlink Raiders face off 5.30pm in a KIDS GO FREE NIGHT WHEN 2 UNDER 16s GO FREE WITH A PAYING ADULT!!!

Also this Sunday 14th we will be having a charity auction after the game of special edition game worn shirts with half the proceeds going to Sheffield Childrens Hospital Charity and half going to fundraising for the club. Everyone is welcome and you will have the chance to bid for your favourite player's shirt and the winners will be presented with the signed shirts by the players themselves!

Details of all games, promotions and prices are contained in the enclosed flyers.

As you all know by now we haven't got a big marketing budget so please again help us and play a vital role by passing all of the flyers around all your friends, family, neighbours and mates at work or school. Remember we're also talking canteens, supermarket noticeboards, local shops, post office windows wherever you can!

If any of you work for very large companies, colleges or schools etc where you feel you may need more flyers, even hundreds, just drop Hilary Jones a line at contact@sheffieldscimitars.co.uk and we will send some right out to you! Hilary is also the person to speak with about GR8 Group prices for 8 people or more for ALL matches for businesses, schools, youth groups etc and also for details on sponsorship and corporate opportunities.

Advance sales for all matches are going well. You can book online at www.sheffieldscimitars.co.uk Alternatively tickets can be bought by calling 0800 138 8544 (24 hours, all calls are FREE) or by coming in person to iceSheffield main reception. On the day, we advise fans to arrive one hour before face off to avoid disappointment.

As we have said before, just think if all of you could pass on all the flyers and bring along ONE MORE new person each, iceSheffield would be PACKED OUT for the first time. Imagine what a fantastic atmosphere that would be for all of you and for all the players!

Here's to great festive performances on and off the ice!

See you soon and on behalf of us all at the club, very best wishes to you all for a happy Christmas and 2009!

Ron Shudra
Head Coach
