Grampound Football Club
A founder member of the Duchy Football League
Grampound Football Pontoon 2022-23
Grampound FC Football Pontoon
starts on Friday 7th October
2022. This is a fundraiser that
will cost only about a quid per
week and will support the club
and its finances. It will
continue through the season.
Players
can withdraw at any time.
We hope
that players, partners, wives,
players' mates, work colleagues
and friends of the club will
take part.
How the Game Works
Pontoon
players are allocated a team
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” for the lowest
scorer.
The first
player whose team scores 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
we can get 30 people to take
part in a game the winner would
receive £67.50 and the booby
prize would be £7.50.
The
more players involved, the more
you can win!
All profits
go to the club and help keep
match fees down and allow us to
pay for new kit and equipment.

Grampound FC Football Pontoon
