Leicester City are calling on their younger fans to help raise the roof at the Walkers Stadium.

The club are again keen to attract as many families and teenagers to the stadium in an attempt to attract larger crowds and in the process support the Foxes' push for promotion this season.

And City are hoping that their new match ticket pricing structure for the Under-16s will help do just that, starting with their home opener against Burnley on Tuesday evening (7.45pm).

The club recently unveiled reduced prices for the Under-16s and Under-12s to assist their already acclaimed 'Under-Eights Go Free' policy.

Match ticket prices for the Under-16s have been reduced from £17 to £12 and prices for the Under-12s have been slashed from £14 to just £5.

"It is important that we continue to grow our supporter base especially amongst the younger age groups," said a club spokesman.

"The school holidays are currently upon us, and hope that this factor coupled with the reduced prices for youngsters will help us to fill the stadium this season."

The Foxes are inviting their supporters to create a "Sea of Blue" at the Walkers next Tuesday and club officials are keen for their younger fans to enter into the spirit by wearing something blue to the match.

The spokesman added: "A big crowd will make a difference; there is no doubt about that.

"We also have some other surprises in the pipeline which we hope will add to the occasion come Tuesday night."

Tickets are now available 24 hours a day, seven days a week on line using the new e-tickets facility which carries greatly reduced booking fees of just £1 per ticket.

Alternatively supporters can call the ticket office on 0870 499 1884 or visit the Ticket Office in person.
