Everblades freeze cost of tickets
Season ticket prices for the Florida Everblades next season (2009-10) won’t be going up, the team reported Monday.
In addition to freezing ticket prices, the club announced a 5 percent “early bird” discount on all 2009-10 season tickets that are paid in full by June 12, 1009.
For those unable to take advantage of the “early bird” discount, the team announced a three-payment “EZ pay” option where the order balance is charged on the first day of June, August and October.
“Given the current state of the economy we wanted to provide some options to make the acquisition of season tickets a little easier.” Everblades President Craig Brush said in a prepared statement. “Our season ticket holders are integral to the success of our organization and we hope this offer can help them remain so during this economic downturn.”

The Blades clinched a playoff spot with their 4-1 win over Mississippi Saturday night. They are the first team in the ECHL to secure a postseason berth and currently own the league’s best record at 40-16-3.
