The closing date for the ‘Your Club, Your Country’ draw is fast approaching and the IRFU are calling on all rugby clubs participating in the innovative fundraiser to ensure they get their tickets for the draw into Irish Rugby Headquarters in Dublin by tomorrow.
The official closing date for entries is 5.00pm on Friday, November 2nd and clubs need to have their tickets delivered by this time to be included in the draw, which will take place on Friday, November 9th, the day before Ireland take on South Africa in the opening game of the Guinness Series.
‘Your Club, Your Country’ is a draw that was first launched last year and raised over €600,000 in total for participating clubs. Clubs taking part this season were issued with 1,000 tickets valued at €10 each which means each can raise up to €10,000 for their club.
The clubs will retain 100% of their ticket sales from the draw, which offers an array of fabulous prizes that have been provided by the IRFU and its partners. Over 157 clubs are registered to take part which means over €1.57 million worth of tickets have been issued to those clubs to sell to their members and local community.
Full details and terms and conditions are available on the IRFU website – www.irishrugby.ie/yourclubyourcountry
