Each entry costs £1 per weekly draw. You can buy up to 5 entries per draw and pay for 4, 13, 26 or 52 weeks in advance.
Every Friday at 8pm. The first draw is on Friday 4 December 2026. Entries for each draw close at 11:59pm on the Wednesday before.
Every paid-up entry is given its own unique Lucky Number. Three Lucky Numbers are drawn using an independent random number generator, in the presence of two trustees who do not play. Every draw has three winners.
You do not need to check or claim. We contact winners by email or phone within 3 working days of the draw. Results are also published on our Winners page and Facebook page every Saturday.
By bank transfer within 14 days of the draw, once we have confirmed the winner's identity and age.
Yes, at any time. Contact us and we will stop your entries and refund any paid weeks that have not been played.

The legal minimum age for a society lottery in Great Britain under the Gambling Act 2005 is 16. Because our lottery is sold online, we have chosen a stricter 18+ policy for everyone.
If children use your devices, use the parental controls built into your phone, tablet, computer and broadband router, and keep your payment details secure. Blocking tools such as Gamban and BetBlocker also stop young people reaching gambling sites. Young people worried about gambling can speak to Childline free on 0800 1111.

Buying more entries to "win back" what you have spent is a warning sign.
Do not use credit, loans or money meant for bills, rent or food.

Exclude yourself from our lottery for a minimum of 6 months and up to 5 years. We close all your entries, refund any unused weeks, remove you from all marketing and will not accept new entries from you during the exclusion. It cannot be reversed early.

This lottery is promoted by Drumchapel & District Sports Centre (Scottish Charity SC050353) as a small society lottery under Schedule 11 of the Gambling Act 2005, registered with Glasgow City Council Licensing. Proceeds of each draw stay within the legal limits for small society lotteries (£20,000 per draw and £250,000 per calendar year), and at least 20% of every draw's proceeds goes directly to the charity — in practice 50%.
If you have a complaint, contact us first and we will respond within 10 working days. If you are not satisfied, you can contact Glasgow City Council Licensing or the Gambling Commission. Concerns about the charity itself can be raised with the Scottish Charity Regulator (OSCR).
