Lincoln United 200 Club

The 200 Club is being reintroduced to assist in raising funds for the Club.

The 200 Club is simplicity in itself to join and every participant gets the chance to win in the monthly draw.  Members must be over 16 years old to join and pay by standing order (Cheques are accepted for annual payment – no cash will be collected).

All you need to do is decide HOW MANY NUMBERS YOU WANT, complete your details and the standing order form below and hand it back to a committee member to get you entered.  You will receive a card confirming your monthly numbers and the wining numbers will be posted on the website after each draw.

Although we are calling it the 200 Club, we will of course run with however many subscribers we can get – the more the merrier!

The rules are simple: The entry tickets are £5 per month if paying by standing order (£60 per year by cheque) (full rules are listed at the bottom of this page).

The Club will pay out  as follows:-

1st Prize  =  £300 drawn monthly
Consolation Prizes = 2 per week of £25.00

Please note that monthly subscriptions must be received before the draw otherwise your numbers won’t be included – so we have made the date of the standing order payments on the 20th of each month.

To enter, please download and print the entry form(s) below and then post the standing order form (if used) to your bank and the post the entry form to: Lincoln United Football Club, Sports Pavilion, Ashby Avenue, Lincoln, Lincolnshire, LN6 0DY
