A record 22,876 members have joined the North Queensland Toyota Cowboys for the 2018 season, making it the highest annual membership tally in the club's history.
Cowboys CEO Greg Tonner thanked members in a video for their ongoing contribution to the North Queensland club and its membership program, proudly supported by membership partner Shine Lawyers.
Membership Record
The club record follows the Cowboys v Broncos game on Thursday 9 August, which contributed to a 5.8% rise in memberships in just one week.
It's expected that the Cowboys v Eels game will draw one of the biggest crowds for the 2018 season, with members showing their support for JT at his last home game, on Friday 24 August at 1300SMILES Stadium.
