Tickets and costs - Everything is 1 Euro:

    • one bonus number (40 numbers)
What can you win:
    • Raffle ticket - wins you a raffle prize (Meat or Booze)
    • Football team - win 20 Euros
    • Bonus Number - win 20 Euros
We’ll also run a special offer of “1 across the board” (3 raffle tickets (1 of each colour), 1 footy card, 1 Bonus card…once they're gone they're gone!

How it works 

You get 2 raffle tickets (both with the same number) 1 ticket goes in the tombola – 1 ticket you keep which you use to claim your prize) – putting both tickets in the tombola does not double your chances of winning!

Throughout the raffle, we will scratch the footy call and use our randomiser to select the winning Bonus Number.

There may be hidden surprises thrown in, but you’ve got to come along to find out what they are.

If you are lucky enough to win 3 prizes individually or you bring a guest and they win 3 prizes, the military rule, is you give something back. Traditionally, we say buy a bottle of Port or ring the bell, however, we kindly request that you instead make a small contribution to the SSAFA charity pot.
