Adelaide United is delighted to announce lifelong Reds supporter Andrew Skinner as the winner of the club’s 2025/26 Loyalty Program major prize – an unforgettable trip for two to the Netherlands, made possible thanks to RAA Travel.
The Loyalty Program rewarded Members for their incredible support throughout the season, with fans earning points by attending home matches. Andrew’s commitment saw him qualify in the All-Star tier after attending every home game, putting him in the running for the major prize.
The news came as a complete surprise to the passionate Reds supporter.
“It was a very big surprise,” Andrew said.
“I didn’t expect it at all!”
Andrew plans to share the once-in-a-lifetime experience with his wife, Samantha and their two sons, Ashton (15) and Louis (10), who are both football fanatics.
“The plan is to take my wife Samantha and our two boys, Ashton and Louis,” he said.
“They’re massive football fans. It’s pretty much seven days a week for us, football is a part of life.”
A supporter of Adelaide United since the club’s early years, Andrew says football has always been a major part of his life.
“I was going to Coopers Stadium as a kid back in the NSL days, so I’ve got a lot of memories growing up there,” he said.
“I’ve never had the opportunity to play on the pitch myself, but it’s a place with so many great memories and such a great atmosphere.”
After previously holding memberships during Adelaide United’s Championship-winning 2015/16 campaign, Andrew and his family returned as Members and now attend matches together as a regular tradition.
“The four of us usually come together and if someone can’t make it, my father-in-law fills in,” he said.
RAA Travel General Manager Gina Norman said the prize was a fitting way to reward one of the club’s most loyal supporters.
“RAA has been a proud partner of Adelaide United for more than a decade, and RAA Travel has looked after the club’s travel needs for several years,” Norman said.
“We love rewarding our RAA members and this year we wanted to extend that to a loyal Adelaide United member as well, by organising a trip of a lifetime to the Netherlands.
“Congratulations to our lucky winner Andrew – we hope you have an incredible time exploring the Netherlands!”
Adelaide United congratulates Andrew and his family and thanks every Member who took part in the Loyalty Program throughout the 2025/26 season.
