Since the start of the Super 4 Lotto the Club has been asked a number of questions by members, so for ease of reference please see the answers provided

(Updated 8th January 2023)

WHAT IS THE SUPER 4 LOTTO?

It is a weekly draw available to all members of Old Penarthians where you can buy a £1 ticket (or more), and choose 4 numbers from 1 to 24. There is no limit to the amount of tickets you can buy.

WHEN DOES THE DRAW TAKE PLACE?

The draw takes place every Friday evening (usually at 6.30pm) in the OPRFC clubhouse in the presence of one of the Lottery organising committee or two independant members of the club's mangement committee.

WHEN AND HOW WILL I BE NOTIFIED IF I’VE WON?

You are very welcome to come down to the club for a drink on the Friday evening itself, although please note you MUST be a member to enter and be on the club premises. Alternatively, we will also announce the outcome of the draw on social media shortly after it has taken place and should you be successful, a member of the organising team will be in direct contact with you.

HOW DO YOU DISTRIBUTE THE MONEY?

All ticket sales are divided 50/50 between the SUPER 4 Jackpot and the Club. The Club share will be fully invested back into the Club, aligned to the work that the steering group will be doing, as we look to maintain our financial viability and continue to offer rugby for all. As expected for all clubs, COVID 19 is still having a big effect on us and this will go a long way to maintaining the club as a place in the heart of the community.  

HOW DO I BUY TICKETS?  

You can pay by bank transfer, standing order or cash, Minimum payment is £10 which will give you 10 weeks of lottery draws and save you worrying about remembering to pay every week!  

To make it even easier for you, we have an annual ticket that can be bought for £50 giving 2 free weeks, or a 6 monthly ticket for £25 giving 1 free week.

Again, for peace of mind, this is the easiest option.

IS THERE AN OPPORTUNITY TO PURCHASE AN ENTRY LINE ON A WEEKLY ADHOC BASIS

Yes. During the week leading up to a Friday draw, entries can be made as individual lines or in batches of up to five numbers via an official of the lottery who will have an entry form for you to fill in.  All entries must be completed by the Wednesday preceding the Friday draw to allow time for administration.

WILL MY CHOSEN NUMBERS BE UNIQUE?  

When you complete the online registration form the organising committee will check to see if your set of numbers you have chosen is unique.  If the four numbers have been selected previously by another member you will be given the opportunity to either retain the numbers or to select alternative numbers.

WILL I BE NOTIFIED WHEN I NEED TO ‘’BUY BACK IN’’ TO THE DRAW?

Yes, the organising team will contact you the week before your last draw to remind you and give you plenty of time to continue being part of the fun and support your local club!

WHAT PRIZES CAN WE EXPECT?  

Prizes will vary depending on how long the draw is rolled over before we have a winner and how many are entered. To give you some idea we have seen other local sports clubs giving out prizes that range between £1,000 and £30,000!

WHERE WILL I FIND A LIST OF THE WINNING NUMBERS? 

The winning numbers for each draw will be published on the Club’s Social media outlets as soon as possible after the draw. A full list of winning numbers since the first draw on 11th September 2020 can be found on the following link of draw winners

WHAT ARE THE RULES OF THE DRAW? 

Really easy this one! If all four of your numbers are drawn that week, you win the prize fund! If no-one wins that week, then the money will be rolled over every week until we have a winner!  

In case of more than one winner in a single week, the prize will be shared equally. We will advise you as soon as possible if your numbers are identical to another player so you have an opportunity to change them if you wish, or you can keep them of course, but obviously your prize will always be shared! 

It is important for us that we acknowledge and address all queries from our members. If you have a question it is likely than another member will also be wondering about the same question, so if you have questions or queries regarding the OPRFC Super 4 Lotto, please get in touch on oldpensrfc@live.co.uk
