Fund Raising

We run several regular fund raising schemes and they are open to all members.

The Bonus Ball
A weekly draw based on the 49 numbers in the National Lottery. Tickets cost £1 a go and are sold on Wednesday evening at the clubhouse. The winning number is the following Saturday's Bonus Ball. You have a 1 in 49 chance of winning £30. The club has the balance which amounts to around £1,000 per year. If you cannot get to the club on Wednesday you can pay several weeks up front and pick a permanent number - just contact Terri Shotton or one of the wine Committee.

The 300 Club
Limited to 300 participants and open to all including non-members - it only costs £24 a year or £12 semi annually. This is a valuable contributor to Club funds. Monthly prizes - for eight months of the year are 1 x £75, 1 x £50 & 1 x £25 then there are two months of biggies - £300 and 2 x £100; one in the summer and one at Christmas - in March & September £150, £100 & £50.  All proceeds are for the benefit of the Young Athletes travel. Full details from Anthony Pontifex 07963738452. apontifex@hotmail.com

 Lottery
The National Lottery Syndicate raises funds for the Club and gives the subscribers the opportunity to benefit if or when we are fortunate to have a big win. It has been running for 14 years and over that time has raised over £7,500 for the club.  Cost is £10 per quarter by standing order (£40 per annum). Small wins go direct to the club large ones are split 25% to the club with the remaining balance split between the subscribers (currently 60). Details from David King dave_croydon@hotmail.com

On 3 September 2005 we had a big win! We were lucky to get 5 numbers and the bonus ball on a week that paid out more than normal.  The Syndicate won £313,770.  This means that the Club received £78,000 and the Syndicate members shared the balance. Most of the members have been in from the beginning (some 10 years ago) and had not received a penny up to that point - but had invested £400.

Why not sign up and see if the odds change...
