It-s that one piece of hallowed turf usually reserved for those heroes we cheer on each week. However this Family Sunday at Allianz Stadium, when Sydney FC take on the Wellington Phoenix, kids will be allowed onto the pitch at full time to follow in their Sky Blues heroes’ footsteps.

From watching the Sky Blues take on the Phoenix in a crucial clash that could determine Sydney FC-s finals fate to running on the grass, children will be permitted onto the field of play after the full time whistle for up to 15 minutes of play.

Bring a ball or grab one at the merchandise store on the day. The kids can take shots at the same goals as their idols and mimic the mazy runs of Alessandro Del Piero as they take in Allianz Stadium from the centre circle.

As an added special for Family Sunday, all Junior tickets will be half price with general admission tickets starting at $7.50.

We all remember the Sky Blue-s 7-1 demolition of the Phoenix last season and who could forget Ranko Despotovic-s last minute winner the last time these two sides met at Allianz Stadium.

So come along and make a day of it as the Sky Blues look to hold down their finals position in a match that always entertains.

*Please note “kids on the pitch” is subject to weather on the day.
