New WooSox Rewards Point System Announced

January 31, 2023 - International League (IL)
Worcester Red Sox News Release


WORCESTER, MA - The Worcester Red Sox today announced the point system for their WooSox Rewards, the all-new, all-encompassing, re-launched free fan loyalty program, presented by Window World, that allows fans to earn points that can be redeemed for more than 100 prizes and unique, priceless experiences. The program was announced November 30, 2022.

Fans earn points just for attending games and for purchasing food and drink, and can now enjoy a variety of gifts and experiences with specified point totals. When they redeem (use) their points, their available total decreases by the corresponding amount.

"The Hot 100" ranges from a free ice cream or burger to a Ceremonial First Pitch or a trip to Spring Training in Florida.

All members of the club's current affinity programs-the Worcester Red Sox Booster Club, the WooU Student Program, and the WooCrew presented by Shaw's-are automatically enrolled and their accrued points carry over. New users will be able to join by downloading a new WooSox Rewards app set to debut March 1, 2023.

Offering a "low tech" option, the WooSox also offer fans a free physical membership card by calling (508) 500-1000 or by emailing [email protected] The cards will be available at home games, at the revamped "WooSox Rewards World Headquarters" to be located on the First Base Plaza.

"WooSox Rewards is bigger, better, and bolder," said Red Sox Hall of Famer Larry Lucchino, Chairman and Principal Owner of the WooSox. "We have spent some productive time imagining experiences you just can't get anywhere else, and we think fans will find these rewards new, different, and cool."

Fans can earn 100 points for attending Opening Weekend, Friday, March 31-April 2, 2023, when the WooSox face the Syracuse Mets (Triple-A, New York Mets) to open the season.

For the rest of the home games in WooSox '23, fans receive 20 points for each game they attend. In addition, fans receive one point for every dollar of Polar Park purchases of concessions and merchandise, including Polar Park events and visits on off days. (Suite purchases are excluded.) Fans receive 40 points for attending a "Woof Woof Wednesday Night," when fans are invited to bring their pooches to Polar Park. In addition, on Double Points Wednesdays, fans earn two points for every dollar spent on concessions and merchandise.

The club also plans to invite fans to earn points by patronizing their partners and neighbors in the Canal District, with more information to be announced in March.

Fans will also receive 25 points for celebrating their birthdays.

Three tiers of membership, based on the number of points amassed each year, include gifts and benefits for crossing various point thresholds. Leadoff Hitters receive Bronze Cards and a welcome as the WooSox Rewards Member of the Game after reaching 1,000 points. All-Star Members receive Silver Cards and a free WooSox Rewards cap when crossing the 3,000-point threshold. Hall of Fame Members receive Gold Cards and a free WooSox Rewards t-shirt and recognition in a pre-game ceremony on the field after crossing the 5,000-point threshold.

Full Season Ticket Members earn 500 points for enrolling into program. Half Season Ticket Members receive 200 points, and Mini Plan Holders receive 50 points. Three Mini Plan options are now available at WooSox.com or by calling (508) 500-1000. Season Ticket Members will also continue to receive exclusive gifts and experiences.

At the end of 2023, the fan to accrue the most points, regardless of how many points the fan has redeemed, will be honored as "The WooSox Rewards Fan of the Year."

In their second season in Worcester, the WooSox led all of Minor League Baseball in tickets sold and sold out more than half of their 73 home games (42) at Polar Park. A more extravagant and available fan loyalty program is just one of many ways the club will provide "even more to do and see in WooSox '23."
