Get your chips out for the lads

Last updated : 24 March 2003 By Tony Scholes

It is the Casino Night arranged as a fund raiser by the Centre of Excellence and they hope to raise around £2,000 with some of it being used to send the Under-11 team to Holland to play in a prestigious tournament.

The evening has been primarily organised by the parents and coaches of that team and they have already raised £750 from a recent quiz night.

This time it is a Casino Night and admission is £10 per person. For the £10 you get supper and currency to gamble with, more currency will be available on the night for the Mavericks amongst you.

The whole evening is professional run and there will be blackjack, roulette, poker and horse racing for you to have a flutter. The evening will end with an auction.

Further details are available in the Ticket Office and Leisure Centre at Turf Moor and if you are interested tickets can be purchased from Dave Craig who can be contacted on 07903 206551.

As we said a couple of weeks ago this is to help the Centre of Excellence and those organising the event are doing so to help our club. If you are free on Friday then please support them.
