The athletics department is offering a special incentive for UWindsor employees to cheer on the Lancer football at its season opener Sunday, Aug. 25, on Alumni Field.

The “Better than BOGO” deal will issue one free adult ticket and two free youth tickets for each entry purchase by faculty or staff.

“It makes a great family outing, at a fantastic discounted rate, to cap the summer,” says marketing co-ordinator Mona Sleiman. “Our student-athletes are motivated by the fans cheering them on — what better group to do so than our own Lancer family?”

Chris Zorbas documents “new blood and new excitement” in an interview with head coach Jean-Paul Circelli at goLancers.ca.

The Lancers will kick off their 2019 campaign against the York Lions. Game time is 7 p.m. Tickets are available for purchase online at www.goLancers.ca/tickets.
