OTHER NEWS - York City Knights launch weekly lottery

• York City Knights are launching a lottery to raise funds for the club

• A minimum weekly jackpot of £500 is promised

• Tickets cost £2

• The lottery begins next Wednesday 6th May

York City Knights has announced the launch of a new weekly Knights Lottery.

It's hoped the lottery will raise funds to support and grow the game in York and North Yorkshire, by supporting the foundation to extend its reach to more people in more communities across York and North Yorkshire.

Initially through an online ticketing system only, players can be in with a chance to win this weekly draw, paying £2 a line. There’s a minimum Jackpot of £500 which grows each week if not won, and additional guaranteed weekly prizes to be won.

The draw will take place each Wednesday, with the winners being directly contacted via email. The first draw will be held on the 6th May with draws being held weekly from then.

Knights General Manager Neil Gulliver said:

“This new lottery will provide an opportunity as not only vital source of income to help us sustain the work of the Foundation and Club across the area but has the potential to make a step change in the way we work.

“We know our army of fantastic fans will support this new scheme and I would ask them to spread the word to colleagues, families and friends to help us reach our potential. We have been working hard behind the scenes to set up a lottery system that fans can play online, and once established when we are through these challenging times, we will also be able to have agents selling tickets.

“Our Lottery partner ‘ClubForce’ are providing everything we needed with all profits going to the Foundation.”

The Knights Lottery is only open to people over the age of 16. Please play responsibly.
