PROGRAMME NOTES FOR SHEFFIELD WEDNESDAY
AWAY TRAVEL SPONSORED HALF
TIME DRAW
We have a real first to report from the last draw.
Whilst we have had two or three individuals who have scooped the top prize on two occasions during the 5 or so seasons that we have operated the draw, this was to be the first time we have had a triple success.
Yes, Eva Hutchings from Aldbourne, a regular away traveller, must not have been able to believe her luck as her ticket came out earning her the top prize for the THIRD time. Her winning ticket was 1733 and this time she won £369 adding to previous wins.
POUNDS FOR POINTS
A win in our last home match took this fund close to £1000
and with over £40 per point now on offer each win from the first
team in the league adds around £125 in our sponsorship of the
youth set up through the Centre of Excellence.
You do not have to be a supporters club member to join this initiative and if the minimum of 50p per point is too much to commit individually, why not get together and participate as a group.
Naturally, we would be delighted to hear from individuals or businesses that would be happy to join the scheme
Full details are on our web site or you can write to Mavis Knight C/O The Supporters Club, County Ground Swindon Wilts who will be pleased to give further information
