Bumper half-time draw for 2026 opener against Sutton United - £500 guaranteed cash first prize

We're celebrating the arrival of 2026 with a £500 guaranteed cash prize on offer for our first game of the new calendar year against Sutton United this Saturday, sponsored by the SUFC Unity Group, in memory of John Staff.

With Iron fans massively getting behind our 50-50 draw last season, with over 45,000 tickets sold, and the same backing this season with already over 25,000 ticket sold, half of the proceeds go into making the prizes at the Attis Arena, usually to a maximum of £500, with this total achieved at virtually every match, with the Iron handing out well in excess of £10,000 worth of prizes last year.

Against Chester in our Community Day in March and the Promotion Final against the same opposition, we offered a guaranteed first prize of £500 cash on the day of the game, which is double the normal maximum first prize handed out, along with the opening day of the season against Woking.

With Saturday being our first league return to the Attis Arena since that New Year, we're doing it all again, with a £500 cash prize available to the lucky holder of the winning ticket to kick-start your year in style.

To be in with a chance of winning, all you have to do is purchase tickets from our programme sellers, or the ticket office in the build-up to the game. Each ticket costs £1.
