Grays Athletic Football Club were devastated to hear the news on Friday 1st September that our fellow Thurrock non league football club East Thurrock United had entered liquidation and would cease all senior mens football with immediate effect.

It is some conciliation that East Thurrock Uniteds superb youth section will remain for the 2023/24 season. The Junior Rocks youth set up is one of the strongest in South Essex and we are delighted that this will continue for the foreseeable future.
The club are aware that as part of the youth set up at the Rock, every Junior Rock was offered a free season pass for the 2023/24 season to watch the Senior team play at Rookery Hill and half price entry for every accompanying parent/carer.
As the Rocks 1st Team are no longer able to play senior mens football due to the recent news the Grays Athletic board of directors have unanimously decided to stand side by side with the Rocks superb Youth section and are delighted to be able to offer FREE ENTRY to every East Thurrock United Youth player for our home league matches for the 2023/24 season. This also includes half price entry to every parent/carer of a East Thurrock united youth player* This is the same offer we offer to all our Grays Athletic Youth players and parents

HOW IT WORKS:
SIMPLY WEAR YOUR EAST THURROCK UNITED YOUTH TEAM KIT TO ANY OF OUR HOME LEAGUE GAMES FOR THE 2023/24 SEASON TO GAIN FREE ENTRY. YOU MUST BE ACCOMPANIED BY A PRENT OR CARER WHO WILL GAIN HALF PRICE ENTRY.

*Limited to two parents/carers
