Hi Everyone

After the entertaining and enjoyable event last night’s Welcome to the North’, the next SSSC event is hot on the heels of it.

 ‘Who’s the Boss?’ is on 21^st October 7,30pm in the Suite at Morson Stadium, Heywood Road, M33 3WB.

Scheduled to appear and answer your questions are Owner Michelle Orange (TBC), CEO Paul Smith, Director of Rugby Alex Sanderson and Head of Commercial Operations Robbie Stott. That’s a pretty powerful line up!

In order to help the evening run smoothly and ensure all you questions are answered, can you please submit your question(s) in advance to info@salesupporters.co.uk by 12^th October.

We anticipate there will be lots of interest in this event. We will also be taking questions from those present on the night but the best way is to submit in advance.

Thank you

SSSC Committee

Hi Everyone

Great win on Thursday against Gloucester and great to get the bonus point, although we did leave it a little late. George Ford was man of the match, but a few of the lads must have run him close, particularly Nathan Jibulu. Don’t forget Nathan will be at our “Welcome to the North” event on Tuesday 30^th September, so come along and hear his views on the game and playing for Sharks.

If meeting the new players isn’t reason enough to come along, the Club have very kindly offered 2 tickets to the Players Lounge at the Newcastle Red Bulls game. So everyone who attends the event tomorrow night will go into a draw with a chance to win the tickets. 7.30 at the Morson Stadium, Heywood Road. The bar is open from 7.00

And the good news continues. Following on from the Sale Sharks Sponsors Day draw, we have yet another event for you all.

For 2025/26, we have sponsored Evan Mintern of Sale FC. As part of the sponsorship package, we have been given 2 places on Saturday 11^th October 2025 at Sale FC’s game against Bishop Stortford.

You and a guest can enjoy an excellent two course meal, listen to ex-England international and Sale Shark legend Steve Hanley asking questions of at least one of the first team and a member of the coaching staff and you will also hear from the president of Bishops Stortford.

To be in with a chance of winning, simply email events@salesupporters.co.uk by 12.00 noon on Friday 3^rd October.”

We will make the draw and let the lucky winner know immediately.

If you are successful in the draw and subsequently cannot attend, you cannot give your places away. It will be redrawn.

Newsletter September 2025

Hi Everyone
 
Best we try and forget Friday’s pre-season game, but it was great to be back at Heywood Road. Fingers crossed it was much better against Bristol and then we move onto the first Thursday night fixture against Gloucester. At least the traffic should be a bit easier to navigate than a Friday night.
 
Membership fees are due on 1^st October. So there is still time to check your standing order is set up or bank transfer ready to go. This month we will also be announcing the ability to use PayPal for all payments. Please note though a standing order or bank transfer is the preferred method of payment.
As you probably know, all paid up members receive a free SSSC beanie hat. You will be able to buy additional hats for only £10.
Finally on membership, throughout the season we will be holding draws with a chance to win signed shirts or hospitality at Sale FC. Please help us boost membership by encouraging all your rugby friends to join. 
 
Most of our 2025/26 events are now agreed, with the first one on 30^th September – “Welcome to the North”. Hope you can all attend. We had a couple of disappointing turnouts last season, and the danger is if we cannot get supporters to attend, the club will be reluctant to send players along. All events, apart from the dinner, are free for members and only £7 for non-members. So please try and persuade friends and family to come along (see banner below)

Please note the date announced for the Annual Dinner will change. We are working with the club to agree a new date and hopefully can announce a new date very soon.
 
Thank you to everyone who replied to the survey and thank you to those who congratulated the SSSC committee for the job they do. Its not always easy but rest assured we will always try and do our best whether it be events, fun buses or helping fans any way we can. There were a couple of very interesting suggestions made, and we are meeting with the club next week to discuss these further. Meanwhile, buses are definitely running to Tigers and Saints. So, if you want to reserve your place, email funbus@salesupporters.co.uk
 
Finally, we have made slow progress on our SSSC podcast. We do have some content, but we are really struggling with editing. Would be great to think we can finally get something out but if any of you has editing skills, please try and give us a hand if you can.
 
Many thanks and hopefully see you soon or at the Gloucester game.

Hi Everyone,

Job done over at Caldy so fingers crossed we can now finish top of our Premiership Cup group. Ollie Davies got on the score sheet and don’t forget the SSSC bought him a pair of boots before he joined the Sharks. Nice to think we may have played a very very small part in his progress.

We can now confirm further details and dates for a couple of events:

Tuesday 1st April is our Legends Return event. This proved extremely popular last year, and some great names have been mentioned. We are working hard to see who can attend.

Our annual cricket match against Altrincham FC supporters is scheduled for Friday 27th June at Ashley Cricket Club. If you want to play, just email cricket@salesupporters.co.uk or click here . It’s a fun evening and you really do not need a great deal of sporting prowess to play.

Finally, our annual end of season dinner and awards evening is Wednesday 14th May. Last year this sold out in record time, so as soon as the bookings are open, suggest you get in early to avoid disappointment.
This is our biggest fundraiser of the year, any raffle or auction prizes you can donate would be great. Experiences are always very popular so if you can arrange anything suitable, please email events@salesupporters.co.uk or click here . Signed sporting memorabilia always raises a lot of money for us, so if you have anything in the loft or garage that no longer has wall space, please think about donating it.
Remember money we raise goes to support the Sharks Academy and other local rugby causes, including Trafford Schools.

Thanks for reading, hopefully see you soon either at a game or our next event

You will receive regular updates of all Supporters Club activities including the Fun-Bus, Away Tickets, Social Events, Fund Raising, advice and help for European and domestic travel and much more!

Your details will be kept secure and WILL NOT be passed to any third party.
