In a statement, the Enterprise National League South outfit said: “Like many clubs up and down the country, we’ve worked hard behind the scenes to keep football affordable for all.

“However, with rising operational costs across the board, we’ve had to introduce a small increase to this season’s pricing.

“We’ve carefully considered the structure to ensure we’re still offering great value for supporters and their families, and we continue to offer discounted prices for advance online bookings.”

Prices for 2025-26 will be:

• Adult: £18 on the gate; £16.20 advance purchase.
• Over-65: £15 on the gate; £13.50 advance purchase.
• Student/Under-21: £10 on the gate; £9 advance purchase.
• Under-16: £5 on the gate; £4.50 advance purchase.
• Under-12 (there must be an adult in the same transaction): £3 on the gate; £2.70 advance purchase.
• Family (two adults and two under-12s): £36 on the gate; £32.40 advance purchase.

Paul Williams, City’s football chairman, added: “We’ve spent a lot of time trying to balance rising costs with our commitment to keeping Bath City affordable and welcoming for all.

“We understand how important it is for our fans to feel part of the journey and not priced out of matchdays.

“These slight increases help us maintain the matchday experience and facilities, and support our ambition for the club both on and off the pitch.”
