Dear Member/Parent
100 CLUB LOTTERY
To help raise funds for the club the Committee has decided to run a ‘100 Club’ and it is for that reason that we need your support. For a contribution of £10 per month, you will not only be supporting the Club but also giving yourself a chance of winning a monthly prize and an annual prize.
Players, former players and non-playing friends of Cuckfield Rangers FC can join the ‘100 Club’ as a means of raising funds and through their financial contribution, benefit the maintenance and development of the resources of the Club for everyone’s future enjoyment. In the first instance the funds raised will be used to pay the cost of training for all three teams and enable us to remove the signing on fee from the start of next season.
The basic features of the Club Lottery are as follows:
For a payment of £10 each month, you will be allocated a Draw Number which will be entered into a monthly draw with fellow supporters of Cuckfield Rangers FC Lottery income will be £12,000 per year if 100 contributors take part Half the total proceeds will be allocated as prizes, totalling £6,000 per year There will be a monthly draw with the following prizes (see rules 11 & 12 below): 1st monthly prize £250 2nd monthly prize £100 3rd monthly prize £50 The additional prize amount of £100 each month will be rolled up into an annual super prize draw of £1,200 in December in addition to the regular monthly draw. (subject to notes 11 & 12)
We are convinced this will be a popular way of raising money for the Club because of the good chances of winning one of the 49 prizes to be drawn each year and sharing the £6,000 prize money. Anyone can buy more than one Draw Number. Simply complete the Standing Order Instruction (attached), and send it to your bank.
Please return the attached 100 CLUB LOTTERY REGISTRATION FORM and initial payment to me as quickly as possible so that we can perform the administration in time to commence the first draw on the last Saturday of February 2014.
Good Luck
Peter Marshall Club Treasurer
