We would like to inform all SOCIO and fan club members that the monthly publication "FREAKS" will cease publication in 2024. "FREAKS" will be relaunched as a paid membership website.
Regarding the discontinuation of the monthly "FREAKS"
The monthly "FREAKS" was first published in 1995 as "the joint MAGAZINE for the club and its supporters." It was born out of a request from many supporters to "explain the circumstances" surrounding the transfer of then-player Santos, who had supported the team in its early days. Current club advisor Zico responded by saying, "The club has an obligation to inform supporters who buy tickets and come to cheer us on about newly decided information."For approximately 30 years since its inception, we have been delivering information to the Antlers Family through the monthly "FREAKS." From 2022, in addition to the traditional print version, we also began offering a digital version through the official Antlers app, continuing to publish and distribute content updated once a month.
Considering the frequency of information updates from the club and media trends, we have decided to completely renew and relaunch the content as a paid membership website that can be updated in a timely manner.
The entire club sincerely thanks you for your long-standing patronage. Please look forward to the renewed "FREAKS."
About the paid membership website "FREAKS"
Inheriting the concept from its initial publication, we will continue to "join" with the Antlers Family by delivering daily updates on the club and players that can only be seen here.Until January 2025, during the open campaign period, members who register will be able to enjoy various contents for free for the first month of registration. The history project "Antlers Library" will feature highlights looking back at famous matches of yesteryear, and some of the "FOCUS" and monthly "FREAKS" articles distributed to 2024 season SOCIO and fan club members will also be specially released.
Furthermore, from the 2025 season, we plan to sequentially distribute projects such as "TRAINING REPORTS," which convey daily training in videos, and "World Beyond the Viewfinder," a popular project by the club's official photographer.
In addition, members of the paid membership website "FREAKS" can also enjoy content distributed on the official mobile site "Antlers Mobile." Popular content such as the "Staff Diary," updated daily by club staff, and "Text Live," for match updates, will also be available.
Details on how to register and the content will be announced again in late November (tentative).
