Mito Hollyhock has unveiled exciting opportunities for fans to acquire exclusive merchandise for the upcoming 2024 season, promising unique, direct interactions with the club's players through carefully curated signed items.
From December 23, 2023, at 20:00, the Mito Hollyhock official online store will launch sales of limited-edition player banners, each adorned with the direct signature of the respective athlete. These banners, which were prominently displayed at home games during the 2024 season, signify both the players' connection to their supporters and the fans' enduring allegiance to the club.
Each signed banner is priced at 15,000 yen (including tax) and measures approximately 1500 mm by 1400 mm—perfectly sized for any fan's collection. Notably, each player is represented by only one banner, making this opportunity particularly exclusive. Participatory players include fan favorites like Koji Honma, Waki Gotōda, and Naoki Yamada, among others.
The sales event runs until January 31, 2025, giving fans ample time to secure their desired memorabilia. Payments can be made via credit card as well as through convenient post-payment options, complete with security and ease of access for fans eager to support the club.
While the player banners are displayed outdoors, purchasers should note the banners may show slight signs of wear and tear, reflecting their real game-use status. Interested fans can easily order by visiting the official online store but must first register for a J-League ID, ensuring smooth processing and order fulfillment. Shipping is free for orders over 3,980 yen, otherwise incurring a nominal fee of 715 yen.
Meanwhile, as part of Mito Hollyhock's raffle-style auction, fans are invited to bid on signed acrylic panels and entry-worn anthem jackets from December 16 to 29, 2024. This auction promises to provide players' memorabilia priced affordably with starting bids at 5,000 yen for the acrylic panel and 15,000 yen for the anthem jacket. A piece of advice for participants: make sure to familiarize yourself with auction rules and terms of service to avoid hiccups, as cancellations post-purchase are not accepted.
These initiatives mark Mito Hollyhock's concerted efforts to engage their fanbase, ensuring supporters have unique, tangible connections to their favorite players. The items available are more than just souvenirs—they are symbols of the unwavering spirit uniting fans and players.
To participate, fans can head to the auction website and follow necessary registration steps. Active involvement could see fans walking away with exclusive merchandise, adding value not only to their collection but also enhancing the communal spirit of support behind Mito Hollyhock.
For continuous updates and all the details, fans are encouraged to reach out directly to Mito Hollyhock through the customer service channels listed on their official club network.
This engaging promotion promises not just memorabilia but also memories, and provides fans with something special to herald the beginning of another exciting season for Mito Hollyhock.
