Premier League clubs have been accused of "excluding families from poorer backgrounds" by Clive Efford, the shadow minister for sport.

Rhisiard Jenkins paid 拢450 plus VAT for his son Lewys to walk out with Swansea City at the match against Reading in 2012.

He said it was worth the money for "one of the best days of (Lewys') life".

An investigation by the Guardian found that some teams are charging hundreds of pounds for children to be mascots. The most expensive package came in at 拢600 and just nine clubs do not charge at all.

Swansea City defended the cost of being a mascot saying their package includes four match tickets, hospitality, a replica kit and signed ball. There's also an opportunity for a free space for a local charity or a good cause every home game.
