“Although we are heading for an incredibly exciting finish to the current season, thoughts and planning have also started to turn to the next campaign.

“We have a squad which includes a great mix of household names and young talent as well as a thriving Academy, who have all stepped up this season during a campaign which has been particularly challenging. Together they ensure we will always be up there competing with the very best. “Trophies are what we are after and in that we have been successful these past few seasons. With your continued support,I believe this Club is just going to get stronger and stronger.”

Welcome from David Ellis,Chief Executive.

In preparing for our new season, I find myself reflecting on our 2013/14 campaign. As I write we are still competing at the top end of the Aviva Premiership, we are driving on in the Amlin Challenge Cup and have the recently announced European competition to look forward to next year.

There have been a few lows, but many highs. We’ve seen a huge total squad performance; celebrated our 50th year at The Stoop; completed a European double over Racing Metro; had titanic tussles against Clermont Auvergne and away wins over Scarlets and Stade Français - with our players driven on by incredible travelling support.

Our England players have been instrumental in leading a resurgent national team; the strength in depth of our world class Academy has again shone through and the future, coupled with our new signings for the 2014/15 season, is full of promise.

We would not be in this position without our Members and fans. Your support helps us to spend up to the salary cap keeping us competitive on the field, to continue driving the level of talent through our Academy and to expand our award winning community programmes so more youngsters are attracted to rugby and the Harlequin way.

A main aim for 2014/15 membership is to make it easier and more flexible for every Member to come and support the players and to enjoy The Stoop. Developments for 2014/15 include:

• Price freeze across all levels of membership

• Introduction of ticket forwarding and reselling for games you are unable to attend

• Free upgrades to Adult tickets for Junior Members who cannot make rescheduled evening fixtures

• Expansion of our family packages We are continuing to take steps to improve the match day experience at The Stoop. We will increase our investment into the bars and food areas and cashless payment systems will make it quicker and easier to buy food and drinks at busy times.

Next season promises to be even more challenging and exciting. Our supporters contribute enormously to the unique sights and sounds around the stadium and make us the Club we are. Whether you are becoming a Member for the first time or renewing your existing commitment - thank you for your support and see you at the start of our 2014/15 campaign. Nunquam Dormio

“I grew up watching Harlequins, so to represent them as captain is just fantastic. I can honestly say that our supporters are massive for us and they spur us on at critical times.

“They are a huge part of making The Stoop such an enjoyable place for us to play, but so difficult for our opponents.”

Evening fixturesWe have learned from experience that some of our fixtures may be rescheduled to Friday evenings for television, making it difficult for our Mighty Quins Members to join us.

As a result, for these fixtures, we are introducing the option for all Junior memberships to be upgraded to an Adult ticket free of charge via our Ticket Forwarding service.

The Stoop has always been a hugely welcoming place for families with great child-friendly entertainment before, during and after every match.

“I saw my first match at The Stoop in 1991 and now my seven year old son Hugo and I are Members. We feel emotionally invested in the Club, the players and the coaches and it has made our enjoyment of the team’s fantastic recent successes all the more special”

“Having come through the Academy system, Harlequins has been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. Our supporters are great and I play alongside such a great bunch of lads. I can’t imagine myself playing anywhere else.

“It’s brilliant to see the faces of our Members every week as we can start to get to know them and it makes it feel like they’re truly behind us.”
