As promised, the revamped Hoppers Lottery branded the “PGRFC 500 Club” is here!
Our aim is to attract 500 entries each month; that will provide much needed income for the club. As we all know, 2020 has been a tough year for everyone. However, it has also put a great deal of strain on the club and how we are able to generate income. Season 20/21 looks to be a write-off so the money we generate from match days has gone, as have the majority of bookings for events and functions.
Therefore, the money we can generate from a lottery will provide much needed support. It will ensure the club can continue to operate and develop as we move towards reopening, enjoying our rugby and all other sports and activities our great club offers.
So what’s changed?
Whilst we are aiming for 500 regular entries there is no upper limit. The more entries we get, the more we raise and, the bigger the prizes for you!
Each entry is £5 a month, payable via regular direct debit taken on or about the 10th of the month. You can subscribe to multiple entries, just select how many in the purchase page.
30% of income each month goes into the prize fund; 20% for 1st prize, 7% for 2nd prize and 3% for 3rd prize. A further 10% will go towards a Christmas Bonus Draw that will be held during the last home game before Christmas. However, you must have subscribed for at least 6 months before the Christmas draw to qualify.
Monthly draws will take place on the last Thursday of each month with the first being Thursday 25th March 2021.
Please sign up by the 20th February for the direct debit to come out on the 10th March. This will make sure you are included in the March draw.
Entry is easy, just follow this link and complete the fomr. Any questions please email 500Club@pgrfc.co.uk and we’ll help you out.
