Grampound Football Club

A founder member of the Duchy Football League

Grampound Football Pontoon 2021-2

Grampound FC Football Pontoon starts Game 1 of the season on Friday 15th October 2021.  This is a fundraiser that will cost only about £1 per week and will support the club and its finances.  Players can withdraw at any time.

The club hopes that players, partners, wives, players' mates and friends of the club will take part.

How the Game Works
Players are allocated a team from the Premier League or Championship (randomly by computer) and the main winner of a Pontoon game is the first player whose team scores exactly a total of 11 or 21 goals.  There is also a “booby prize”.

Entry to a game costs £5 and each Pontoon game will probably last about 5 weeks or so. Pontoon players can pay online with a card or with cash.

The first team to hit a total of exactly 11 or 21 goals wins 45% of the total money staked and at that point the player whose team has scored the lowest number of goals wins 5% (the booby prize) — as an example, if 24 players take part in a game the winner would receive £54 and the booby prize would be £6.
With 50 players, the winner of a game would collect £112.50 and the Booby prize would be £12.50

The rules of Grampound FC Football Pontoon are available here and the up-to-date position of each player/team can be viewed on the Grampound FC website.

To take part pay your first £5 to Allan Webb (text ot telephone 07967 207577
