Junior Rugby League passes for 2010 Cowboys home games are now in distribution through JRL clubs and schools, with pass holders required to activate their cards for entry to NRL matches.

To gain entry to Dairy Farmers Stadium to games from Round 2, passes must be activated by 5pm on Wednesday 17 March, following the activation instructions on the front and rear of the cards.

Access for JRL cards at Dairy Farmers Stadium is for the first hour of gates opening only (excluding marquee games, where access is not available).

JRL access for the first Cowboys home game of the season, Cowboys v Panthers, will be from 6pm-7pm on Saturday 20 March.

Passes that have not been activated after round one will not scan at entry points and will therefore not allow access to NRL matches.

Passes only need to be activated once and will allow access to all remaining NRL regular season matches.

TO ACTIVATE YOUR PASS:

More than 175,000 junior passes will be distributed to children and designated club officials in registered rugby league competitions this year – that’s an extra 9,000 extra passes from 2009 as the game caters for record levels of junior registrations.

The NRL remains the only major football code to offer junior and school players free access to its Premiership games.
