I'm not a member of Friends of Newport Rugby. Can I still enter? Where can I pick up an Entry Form? The total prize fund depends entirely on the number of entries each month. 50% of the total income is the maximum permissable to form the prize fund. It is the intention of the Bullion Jackpot Draw committee to pay out the full 50% for the early draws whilst the scheme develops. In future draws 5% of the income may be put aside for one or two Superdraws per year. We will guarrantee that 50% of income will be paid out in prizes over the 12 month period. Half the money is allocated to prizes and the other half goes into the Trust Fund. The Trust has recently sponsored the Newport RFC squad, the Newport Youth squad and the Gateway Community Officers. It is hoped that revenue generated by the Bullion Draw will help us continue with this type of support. 3. How will I know if I've won? Each month a list of winners will be published on the FONR website. Hopefully this will be replicated in the Newport RFC match programme following the monthly draw. However, all winners will be contacted by phone or e-mail to arrange payment of their winnings. 4. How much does it cost to enter? The cost per entry is £5.00 (Five UK Pounds). 5. How many times can I enter? There is no limit to the number of entries. You can enter as many times as you want. One draw will take place each month. The organisers of the Draw reserve the right to increase the number and regularity of the draw at some future date The Superdraw will take place once or twice a year, it is a normal scheduled draw with additional prize money created from a small percentage of the income generated from previous months entries. The aim is to create larger prizes for the Superdraw, which hopefully will create greater interest and result in more applications for membership. 8. Who does the draw and where does it take place? The draw will be administered by the Bullion Draw Committee, and will normally take place at Rodney Parade on a suitable match day. The draw will be performed by a neutral person in public view, e.g. on the pitch or in the Clubhouse, ideally the person performing the draw will be a Rodney Parade Official or player!
