1871 Club Draw 1 of 3

1. Why join?


Joining the 1871 Club is a win-win for both you and OPFC.

A ticket in the 1871 Club Draw only costs a fiver a month, with most playing memberships including a free ticket.

Prize winnings paid out each year total almost £3,500, with the following prizes paid out monthly:

  • 1st prize: c.£120
  • 2nd prize: c.£60
  • 3rd prize: c.£60
  • 4th prize: c.£30
  • 5th prize: c.£30

Money raised from the 1871 Club is ploughed straight back into the club, going towards one-off expenditure such as the newly installed electric scoreboard, or subsidising tours to more far-flung destinations.

How to join

If you are signed up to a direct debit to pay your playing subs, you're in the 1871 Club Draw already. If you'd like to double check, please email David Richard.

If you don't pay subs via direct debit and would like to join the dozens of other 1871 Club participants who pay via standing order, the 1871 Club Application Form is available to download from the Documents page (in the "General" section).
