Kit Builder

As the planning for the 2014 season gets underway, Hornets need your help to ensure they can build a competitive squad.

One of the easiest ways to do this at present is to donate £20 to the  'Kit Builder' draw.

Your £20 get you entered into a draw where the lucky three winners will have their message, logo, photo or Twitter handle emblazoned onto the playing shirts for the 2014 season. 

Every penny of your donation goes towards building Ian Talbot's 2014 playing squad.

A club spokesman said: "Please support us if you can - the draw will be made at the end of season dinner and you can pledge by calling the office. "

Mayor, Peter Rush, and Councillor Colin Lambert have annouced that Rochdale Hornets will be given a Civic Reception to mark the achievement of gaining promotion to the Championship.

A date will be finalised shortly but it is likely to be mid/late October.
