“Global Jacks” & Supporter Group Initiative

During 2019 we recognised that our various affiliated Supporter Groups across the world would benefit from closer collaboration with the support of the Trust and the Club. This has now extended into the Global Jacks initiative, more details of which are below:

Did you know there are official and fully affiliated Swans Supporter groups across Wales, UK, Europe, USA and around the world who are always looking for new members? Some of these just have a handful of members but all share the same passion of being part of the amazing Jack Army wherever they live in the world.

 

If you are not part of an existing Supporter Group then simply send us an email to globaljacks@swanstrust.co.uk and we will add you to our mailing list so you can receive regular updates from our Global Jacks Working Group.

 

If there are other supporters or small groups of Swans fans that would like more information or details of how to set up a new officially recognised Swans Supporter Group this can now be done by visiting the club website https://www.swanseacity.com/news/what-supporters-club and completing the Information Sheet and returning it to the club or the Swans Trust at globaljacks@swanstrust.co.uk

Thanks to the support of the club in early 2021 the “Global Jacks” & Supporter Groups initiative is now accelerating and a small working group meet up with the club every month to discuss and move forward with a number of proposals designed to aid our “Global Jacks” and members of our Supporter Groups across the world. 

The Swans Trust also regularly update all of our Global Jacks and known Supporter Group contacts with the outcome of these meetings and also encourage feedback and ideas of how we can help you still further by emailing us at globaljacks@swanstrust.co.uk

Please visit the Supporter Groups website pages for the very latest news and developments concerning our “Global Jacks” across the world. 

And even if you aren’t a member of any current affiliated Supporter Groups you can still become part of the “Global Jacks” family and receive future updates just by emailing your details to globaljacks@swanstrust.co.uk 

We will then add you to our mailing list and you will receive regular updates regarding anything of importance to our supporters who live further afield than Swansea.

Finally for those of you on Social Media the #GlobalJacks initiative now has the following accounts:
