Draw date/time/location
The goal is to try and get all 1000 tickets sold by October. However, a firm date will not be set until 900 tickets are sold. Once 900 tickets are sold, an email will be sent to everyone who bought a ticket informing them of the draw date, time and location. If by December 1st, 900 tickets are not sold, the club reserves the right to change the details of the raffle and make it a 50-50 raffle with the prize of 50% of the total ticket sales going to the winner.
Regarding the monthly spot prizes
The draw for these prizes will take place after our weekly Thursday soccer practice on the last Thursday of each month. Spot prizes will be given away each month until the grand draw. A ticket that wins a monthly spot prize is no longer eligible for additional spot prizes. However that ticket IS eligible for the grand prize drawings.
Additional Spot prizes and donations
• $250 Home Inspection generously donated by Delfino Zacarias
• $100 generously donated to the club by Brian Cooper to be put towards the cost of creating and printing the raffle tickets
How is the draw made?
To ensure complete integrity regarding the draw process, the winning ticket number for the grand prize will be selected by matching the 3 numbers picked during a Saturday drawing of the Illinois Pick 3 Lottery. (The tickets for this raffle are numbered 000 thru 999.) This will ensure that the grand prize winning ticket is selected fairly. The grand prize winning ticket will be removed from the hat, and the second, third and any remaining spot prizes will be awarded by pulling tickets from the hat. Once again, the date of this draw will be determined once 900 tickets are sold.
How do I know if I won?
All winners will be notified via email or phone, so it is important to ensure that you correctly fill out the details on the ticket stub. Details of prize winners will also be posted on this website.
NOTE: There will be income tax implications for some prizes. For prizes of $600 or more, the winner will be required to fill out a W-2G form. For prizes of $5,000 of more, Stare Byki will be required, by law, to withhold 28% of the winning amount for the IRS .
Stare Byki FC is registered as a 501(c)(3) organization.
