Portsmouth Football Club are delighted to have been awarded EFL Family Excellence status in 2023/24.
Clubs are marked for the quality of their matchday experience across a range of touchpoints, including ticket purchase, entertainment, accessibility, facilities and communications.
The Family Excellence scheme was introduced in 2007/08 and this season has seen a record 68 clubs honoured.
EFL chief executive Trevor Birch said: “Attendances across the EFL are at a modern day high and it’s really encouraging to see more than one million junior supporters attend an EFL match for the third season in a row, highlighting the great work being done by EFL clubs to encourage young people through the turnstiles.”
The scheme was developed to further incentivise improvement at clubs and enable the EFL to increase feedback and support on where the family experience can be improved.
Clubs are visited twice throughout the season by independent family assessors and then awarded their rating.
