Fans signing up for Ospreys Open Day

With excitement building ahead of the first ever Ospreys Open Day at Llandarcy this Saturday, fans young and old are securing their places in the special rugby sessions taking place throughout the day, with three sessions already confirmed as full on Monday.

It’s the first time that the Ospreys have ever run such an event and as you’d expect the response from supporters already shows that it’s going to be a day to remember as they take the opportunity to get a unique close up look at day-to-day life at Llandarcy and see what goes in behind the scenes in areas that are normally out of bounds to all but the team.
