Great Work Colin!

Getting near a single £1,000 pay out each month end, so that should have some fans getting around to making standing orders.

I chose annual standing order payments to have minimum bank charges.

The club is already benefiting by over £10,000 per annum, which is a massive help for a part time outfit.

This is really getting successful now and is a great way to donate with little or no hassle. Someone suggested it might be an idea to split the monthly prize into 2 or 3 - worth considering?

I was thinking it would be good to up the other 3 week prizes if possible. Be nice to hit the 1k for the end of month draw but also rise the other 3 weeks prize to £100 obvisouly all needs more people to join.

Good seeing someone excited on twitter today winning £825 especially as it's a Darlo fan and it's a prize that makes a nice difference to people, just a shame it wasn't me :lol:

A £1,000 plus top month end prize should be realised before improving the scheme with extra weekly prizes, as the four figure sums won will eye-catching for attracting more punters.

Fans can help the scheme by getting friends and relatives to sign up. There is far more chance of winning a decent prize than other lotteries and proceeds all go to DFC, rather than propping up cuts in public services.

Lets get to a monthly prize of £1000 and then consider increasing the weekly prizes.
Well done to all involved in the DFC lottery it's growing rapidly.

Thanks for the comments. If we can get to the point where the biggie reaches £1,000, then that will be the time to review other prizes. There's been a rapid increase in numbers since October, and in May it' s anticipated that the prize fund will increase again, once all the recent new participants' payments have started to come through. Don't forget, anyone can have as many entries as they wish, as long as they pay in multiples of £5.

Yep, looks like we will have raised over £3k this season, around 40% up on last season
