The rules

How the Bonanza works

Simple: predict the scores, pay £10, climb the table.

Scoring

For each game you predict a scoreline. After the final whistle you earn:

  • 7 points — exact correct score (e.g. you said 2–1 and it finished 2–1).
  • 3 points — correct result but wrong score (you said the home side wins, and they did).
  • 0 points — wrong result.

Double-points games

We flag selected marquee fixtures as double-points games — look for the badge on the entry form. Any points scored on those fixtures are doubled for everyone — so an exact score on a double game is worth 14 points and a correct result is worth 6. The same games count double for every entrant, so it's a level playing field — but it's where the bonanza is won and lost!


Winning & the prize split

Every £10 entry goes into one pot, split as follows:

  • 50% to Jeanfield Swifts — that's the fundraising bit. ❤️
  • 40% to the 1st place predictor.
  • 10% to 2nd place.

If two people finish on the same points, the tie is broken in favour of whoever paid their entry first.


Paying

We don't take card payments. When you submit your predictions we show you the club's bank details and a unique reference (like JS-A1B2C3). Make a £10 bank transfer using that reference and we'll confirm your entry once it arrives. Your entry only counts once payment is received and before the deadline.


Deadline

Entries close at Sat 13 Jun · 22:00 (kick-off of the opening game). No entries or changes after that.


Fair play

You must be 18 or over to enter. This is a bit of fun to raise money for the club — please play responsibly. Prizes are paid by bank transfer after all games have finished and results are confirmed.
