“The Canal District is a thriving part of Worcester’s resurgence,” Jordan Sealey-Ashford, the WooSox’ coordinator of marketing & WooSox Rewards, said in a Monday press release from the team. “Our new collaboration rewards fans for visiting restaurants, shops, and other businesses in the Canal District, and rewards our neighbors by helping to ensure they benefit from the increasing vibrancy downtown.”
Fans who sign up for the WooSox Rewards program can get deals or loyalty points at a list of businesses, which currently includes 15 local stores, bars, and restaurants. Loyalty points can be redeemed at the park for concessions and gift shop items.

“We have enjoyed building relationships with our neighbors in the Canal District, and we continue to seek ways to help make sure they prosper from the crowds that come to Polar Park,” WooSox President Charles Steinberg said in the press release. “Retail establishments crave the arrival of more than a half million customers; we try to work with each business to see how we can best help them.”
The WooSox are also partnering with Workers Credit Union of Littleton and LinkToVR, a Boston-based augmented and virtual-reality company, to create Workers Reality, an augmented reality game where fans unlock baseball-themed AR content, with the ability to win prizes ranging from a poster to a WooSox prize pack with four season tickets for the 2024 season, attending batting practice with the players, and customized team jerseys.
The AR game will be unveiled in a press event on Thursday and debut at the Friday home game against the Rochester Red Wings.
