How does the lottery work?
A Random Number Selection Computer Programme is now used and is Gambling Commission compliant. Each weekly draw is also independently witnessed and is conducted in accordance with Gambling Commission rules and regulation on the conduct of small lotteries.

Results of the draw are published on the Sports Lottery Web Site and www.sports2win.co.uk . Unlike the National Lottery, there is no requirement to claim prizes; this is completed automatically on your behalf. You must ensure that your address is correct; failure to do so may delay your winning payment.

How do I play?
Playing is easy. You can play online, using a debit or credit card. If you haven't already registered, just go to the sign up and play today page and follow the instructions. If you are already registered, then go to the members login page and enter your username and password which gets you into your personal Lottery area.

1. The player must be a UK resident
2. The player must have a valid UK postal address

We have sophisticated tools that check players comply with the above requirements. Failure to comply could result in account suspension.

How much does it cost?
