How the lottery works
Playing the lottery
The Grassroots Sport Lottery is an exciting weekly lottery that raises money for sports clubs in the UK. All sports clubs supported by the lottery will benefit the UK and its residents.
Play the lottery, support sports clubs in the UK - it's that simple!
Tickets for the lottery cost just £1 a week. Each ticket has a 1 in 50 chance to win a prize each week, with a top prize of £25,000! There's a better chance of winning the jackpot than the National Lottery or the Health Lottery.
Each ticket has six numbers and each number is between 0 and 9. There will be a draw every Saturday night when a six digit winning combination will be picked. Prizes will be given to players with tickets that match the first or last 2 to 6 numbers from the winning combination. Match all six and you win the jackpot!

Your local sports clubs
The lottery and its prizes are our way of putting the fun in fundraising. The real winners are the sports clubs. From every £1 ticket sold 50p will go to sports clubs in the UK. To put this in perspective when you play the National Lottery 25% goes to sports clubs – we’ve nearly doubled the ticket percentage that goes to sports clubs.
Even better, you can choose which sports club gets 50p of the 50p (the remaining 0p will be distributed to other local sports clubs).
Good luck and have fun!
We hope you'll join us in making the UK even better and have some fun along the way.
