Babies / Children at games. : Fri Nov 25, 2011 8:29 am  

Morning everyone.

The wife has asked me to pose a question.

She is due to pop out our first child in around 2-3 weeks, and she like me is a 5 season ticket holder. The question is, what sort of age have people taken babies/children to a game? (obviously going to make a call weatherwise nearer the time)

I also understand that kids under 4 don't need a ticket (or at least until they start taking up seat space)

Any info would be most helpful.

It's up to you. You can take a baby from any age, so it just depends how comfortable they are at the games and how comfortable your better half is with holding a baby through a game of rugby.

Yeah a lot of it will be how chilled out he is. However if he gets my genes he'll be asleep most of the day. As for holding we have a harness so that shouldn't be a problem.

He needs to show off all his saints gear. He has more tops than I do and i've had every home and away top for the last 15 years.

We've taken our little one since the age of 5 weeks. It's obviously dependent on weather conditions and how crowded a game is going to be ect. As you can see, little one slept the whole game (lets have no 'I'm not surprised watching cas' jokes )

That's good to know. What time of year was that. Just thinking getting cold. However he does have the most amazing snowsuit from Gap that i'm quite jealous of as it looks well warm.

That was taken around beginning of march time. As you can see though it was quite sunny and warm. As long as he/she has vest, baby gro, snow suit, hat and mittens on he/she will be fine. Plus if your using a harness like above, your body heat will keep them warm too.

That's really helpful, thank you very much. I'm sure he'll be in the new stadium come March.

I was carried to Central Park Wigan at the age of three months and it's not done me any harm has it.

Ok that swings it for me. He can wait until he can pay for his own ticket.
