Every team does.
But most fundraisers don’t fail because of bad ideas…
They fail because they’re a nightmare to run.
Sound familiar?
• Chasing people for money
• Forgetting who’s paid
• Paper lists getting lost
• Messages all over the place
That’s what actually kills fundraising.
These aren’t random ideas.
These are the ones teams use week in, week out because they’re simple and repeatable.
Players or parents pay a small fee to predict match results.
Why it works: steady, repeatable income every week
Watch out: tracking predictions and payments can get messy fast
Each person picks a number, winner is based on official draw results.
Why it works: simple, familiar, easy to keep running
Watch out: keeping track of numbers and payments over time
Sell tickets before the game, draw at half-time or full-time.
Why it works: people are already there
Watch out: relies on consistent matchday attendance
Sell squares on a card with a hidden winner.
Why it works: quick, simple, everyone understands it
Watch out: can become repetitive if overused
Crossbar challenge, penalty shootouts, fitness challenges.
Why it works: fun and easy to share with family
Watch out: needs some organisation to run smoothly
Host a small-sided tournament and charge entry fees.
Why it works: high return in one day
Watch out: more planning required
Sell hoodies, hats, or team gear.
Why it works: builds identity + raises money
Watch out: upfront costs and stock management
Host a quiz night or event for parents and supporters.
Why it works: strong community engagement
Watch out: takes planning and coordination
You don’t need more ideas.
You need less chaos.
