Mariners and Central Coast Tourism team up for top deal

The Central Coast Mariners, in conjunction with Central Coast Tourism, are offering a packaged sport tourism experience for visitors to the region in 2011, including accommodation, attractions, and of course, Football.

A one-night accommodation package for two people staying at the Hotel Formule One, West Gosford, plus a double General Admission pass to the Mariners week 22 Hyundai A-League clash against Wellington Phoenix on Sunday, 9th January and a double pass to the Australian Reptile Park for admission on either Sunday, 9th January or Monday, 10th January can be purchased for just $125.

For those looking for a little extra luxury, the same package with accommodation at the five-star Crowne Plaza, Terrigal is available for just $245.

The package is a great way to help make the most of a visit to the Central Coast in the New Year, and with Wellington the Mariners' opponents it could prove a great opportunity for visitors from across the Tasman to sample the region.

Sydney is also likely to be swarming with English cricket fans still celebrating their side retaining the Ashes, meaning the week 22 clash, which could see the Mariners move into second spot on the Hyundai A-League ladder, all signs point to a huge take-up of the offer.

Mariners Chief Executive John McKay explained "this is a fantastic initiative by Central Coast Tourism and we thank them, as well as the Australian Reptile Park, Hotel Formule One and the Crowne Plaza for their involvement.

"As locals we know only too well how much the Coast has to offer, and summer is the perfect time of year for others to sample the region as well.

"The team is fighting for second spot and have won three home games in a row at Bluetongue Stadium, so I would encourage anyone looking for a great value, action-packed 48 hours to see what the Central Coast has to offer, both on and off the Football field."

The initiative represents another innovative way in which the Mariners have reached out to the Central Coast community and businesses.
