Crusaders Touch Football - Poker Night Fundraiser
Posted: Mon Jan 28, 2008 5:04 pm
Hi everyone,
I am looking at ways to raise money for touch football players in South Australia that have been selected to represent the "Crusaders" permit playing in the National Touch League (NTL) at Coffs Harbour in March 2008. The Crusaders permit is made up of players from VIC, TAS and SA and the Crusaders are sending 3 teams to compete at the NTLs. Attending the NTLs can be very expensive considering players pay for everything themselves, including uniforms, flights and accommodation. This is on top of other fees paid at park, state league, and state levels.
One of our fundraising ideas was to have a freeroll poker tournament and raising money around this idea (raffles, chocolates, food, drinks etc). We are looking at charging $10 for entry which would include dinner (BBQ) and entry into the tournament. At this stage we are trying to find a centrally located venue for Saturday 16th February, at little or no cost (community hall or sporting club?). We are hoping to finalise the venue by the end of the week so that we can start organising other details and advertising the event.
We are also looking for donations from the community so we can offer prizes throughout the night. It promises to be a really good night and any support you can offer wold be greatly appreciated.
Any businesses and individuals involved with the event will be properly acknowledged and your company would be exposed to a wide range of people within the touch community and you would be assisting the elite athletes of South Australia raise money.
Once details are finalised, an invitation will be extended to everyone.
I look forward to hearing from you
Regards
Brice Mitchell
