The
aim
The aim of the Social Section is to raise funds for the good of the
club, and the benefit of the members.
We do this in a number of ways. On a weekly basis; By Star Nights;
Annual events; And Charity functions.
Weekly
We run a lotto bonus ball, with a prize of £25 for the Saturday
winner, and £10 going to the Wednesday winner. During the football
season we have a ‘predictascore’, with a weekly payout
of 60% to the winner. And an extra payout going to the first person
to reach 100pts. Plus an end of season payout for the person who gets
the highest score throughout the season. This competition is very
popular and creates a friendly rivalry amongst the participants.
Star Nights
The Star Nights are something special. Top line artists are a priority
depending on the function. In the not to distant past we have had
the pleasure of ‘The Searchers’ ‘Dave Berry’
‘Bernard Manning’ ‘Stephen Bayliss’. Who have
performed at the club. Plus a host of top after dinner speakers for
the Sportsman’s Dinners, which are run by and on behalf of the
sports sections. It is our intention to book the best artists available,
and if possible use local talent where applicable.
Annual Events
These events include Easter egg hunt/fun day, aiming to give the children
and adults a good day out using the grounds of the club for outdoor
fun activities.
At Christmas we have a kiddies party held in the function room with
games and entertainment to keep the little ones occupied, allowing
the parents time to themselves to sample the fine beers and ales in
the games room.
New Years Eve is the ‘big one’. Top line artist, disco,
fun games, excellent buffet, all for a very reasonable price. A very
popular event.
Charity
Functions
These events are organised in conjunction with local charities to
help raise funds for the less privileged in the community; they are
usually run on the same format as Star Nights.
