SPFL Trust Trophy final: Under-12s go FREE for Raith Rovers v Hamilton showpiece

The SPFL has announced under 12s will go FREE for the Trust Trophy Final between Raith Rovers and Hamilton next month.

Accies are in their first final for 11 years and face the holders at the Falkirk Stadium on Sunday, March 26, where a victory would see them lift the trophy 30 years on from their last triumph in the competition against Greenock Morton in 1993.

And young fans will be able to see the action for nothing with a paying adult after ticket details were revealed by the SPFL.

Adult tickets have been priced at £18, £10 for over 65s and students and £5 for juveniles between the ages of 12-16.

Accies fans will be in the North Stand, while the Main Stand will be split. Rovers supporters will be seated in the South Stand.

SPFL chief executive Neil Doncaster said: “Everyone at the SPFL is hugely looking forward to this year’s final at the Falkirk Stadium.

“There’s a great storyline surrounding this match, given Raith Rovers’ impressive recent success in the SPFL Trust Trophy, and Hamilton Academical looking to mark the 30th anniversary of the last time they won this tournament with another trophy.

“The SPFL Trust is a much-valued sponsor of this competition, and they continue to do great work, in partnership with our member clubs, in communities across Scotland.”

The big match is also being shown live on BBC Alba for those who can't make it along for the 4.15pm kick-off.

SPFL Trust CEO Nicky Reid added "We can't wait to welcome Raith Rovers and Hamilton Academical to the Falkirk Stadium for the SPFL Trust Trophy Final 2023. It promises to be a wonderful day, involving two clubs right at the heart of their communities.

"We believe in using football as a powerful tool for good that can have a real-life impact on communities across Scotland the way other sectors can't.

"In our second season of sponsorship, this year's final is a terrific opportunity to highlight not only the work of the community trusts at Raith and Accies, but other Football Powered stories across Scotland."

Accies will be looking for their first win over Raith this season, having lost 3-1 at Stark's Park in November and 1-0 at New Douglas Park in January.
