£120,000 Raised for Pitchero Clubs Through The Fundraising Club

£120,000 Raised for Pitchero Clubs Through The Fundraising Club

Fundraising is a constant challenge for sports clubs. Rising costs, stretched volunteers, and busy members can make traditional fundraising feel like hard work. That’s why The Fundraising Club Lottery has become such a valuable income stream for clubs using Pitchero.

Thanks to the ongoing efforts of clubs promoting their lottery pages to members, parents, and supporters, over £120,000 in grants has now been paid directly to Pitchero clubs. This milestone shows just how powerful simple, digital fundraising can be when it’s easy to run and easy for supporters to get involved.

How The Fundraising Club Lottery Benefits Clubs

Reliable monthly income
Unlike one-off events such as race nights or raffles, the lottery provides ongoing monthly grants. Every ticket sold contributes to your club’s income, making it easier to plan ahead and budget with confidence.

 

No cost and very low admin
There’s no cost for clubs to join and no minimum ticket sales required. The lottery operator manages payments, draws, and prizes, meaning volunteers don’t take on extra admin or compliance work.

 

Easy to promote
Clubs are provided with ready-made marketing materials, including banners, emails, and social posts. With Pitchero, it’s easy to share lottery links through your club website and communications, helping maximise visibility with minimal effort.

 

Attractive prizes for supporters
Supporters aren’t just donating — they’re playing to win. Monthly cash prizes, including a £5,000 top prize and a £25,000 bonus jackpot, make the lottery appealing and help drive ongoing participation.

 

£6 from every £10 ticket goes to the club
For every £10 ticket sold, £6 is returned directly to the club as grant funding. This clear, transparent return makes it easy to explain the benefit to supporters.


A Proven Fundraising Option for Grassroots Clubs

Reaching £120,000 in grants paid shows that The Fundraising Club Lottery is already making a real difference. Clubs are using the funds to support facilities, buy equipment, subsidise fees, and invest in long-term development — all without adding pressure to volunteers.

For clubs looking to build a sustainable fundraising stream that fits neatly alongside existing Pitchero tools and communications, the lottery is proving to be a simple and effective way to turn community support into lasting financial impact.

“Reaching £120,000 in grants paid out to clubs is a brilliant milestone and a real testament to how engaged and supportive grassroots communities are,” said Mark Fletcher, CEO. “The Fundraising Club Lottery is designed to be simple, sustainable, and volunteer-friendly, and it’s fantastic to see clubs of all sizes generating meaningful income that helps secure their future.”
