WORCESTER, MA — The Worcester Red Sox today announced the creation of WooSox Rewards, an 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 prizes and unique experiences that can’t be bought anywhere else.

All members of the club’s current various 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 on a date to be announced after the new year.

Offering a “low tech” option, the WooSox are also offering 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, the club’s principal owner and chairman. “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 earn points just for attending games and for purchasing food and drink, and can now enjoy a variety of gifts and experiences.

“The Top 100” ranges from as simple as a free ice cream or burger to a personalized WooSox jersey, autographed memorabilia, or throwing a Ceremonial First Pitch. Fans can also earn points to “skip the line” to meet a player in the Sherwood’s Diner, and fans can even earn free parking in the Players Lot for a game.

Among the experiences that fans can redeem are Larry Lucchino’s Dugout Seats at Fenway Park for a Red Sox game, watching fireworks on the field at Polar Park, and a Spring Training weekend trip to JetBlue Park in Fort Myers, FL.

Among the ways fans can earn points:

  • For an easy start: Fans receive 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 at Polar Park events and 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.
  • Fans will also receive points for celebrating their birthdays—a point for each year.

There will be three tiers of membership, based on the number of points amassed each year. The tiers include special benefits that will be introduced in the future. The three tiers are Leadoff Hitters (who receive Bronze Cards), All-Star Members (who receive Silver Cards), and Hall of Fame Members (who receive Gold Cards).

Worcester Red Sox Booster Club Teammates, free WooCrew Members, and WooU Members are automatically enrolled in 2023 as Leadoff Hitters and their points carry over. New members also become Leadoff Hitters upon enrollment, and all enjoy early access to Polar Park during WooSox batting practice before applicable home games.

Worcester Red Sox Booster Club Leadoff Hitters and the paid tier of WooCrew Members receive automatic enrollment as All-Star Members in 2023 and their points carry over. Members enjoy a membership gift, early access to Polar Park during WooSox batting practice before applicable home games, and recognition on the field.

Worcester Red Sox Booster Club Hall of Famers and All-Stars receive automatic enrollment into this category in 2023 and their points carry over. Members enjoy a membership gift, early access to Polar Park during WooSox batting practice before applicable home games, recognition on the field, and an invitation to a reception with the leaders of the WooSox.

In addition, Full Season Ticket Members earn 500 points for enrolling into the new WooSox Rewards, 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.

Fans will be able to donate points to a friend or to a charity; details will be announced in the new year.

At the end of 2023, the fan to accrue the most points will be honored as “The Worcester Red Sox 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). A more extravagant fan loyalty program is just one of many ways the club plans to thank fans for their support.

The club will soon reveal a host of ballpark additions and improvements set in motion for WooSox ’23, as well as the 2023 promotional calendar. More information about WooSox Rewards will be shared in the months leading up to Opening Day March 31.
