Monmore is making a significant effort to attract a younger audience by hosting a student race night on October 10. The track is distributing 500 free tickets at the University of Wolverhampton, aiming to introduce a new wave of greyhound racing enthusiasts to the sport.
In a recent post on X, Monmore expressed excitement about this initiative, hoping to create a unique and engaging experience for students. This approach has proven successful in horse racing, particularly in Ireland, where student days draw large crowds. British tracks have started to adopt this strategy, experiencing similar success with increased attendance. If Monmore's event proves successful, it could inspire other tracks to incorporate student days into their schedules, further boosting the sport's popularity.
