Chesham Cricket Club - Astro Fundraising

As I hope you are aware we have been fundraising to try and replace the astro turf pitch at the club. The existing astro is around 25 yrs old and now worn through. The Young Leaders did a fantastic job last summer with raffle, footy evening etc raising around £1500. Unfortunately the replacement pitch will cost around £10,000 (+VAT).


Putting the fun into fun-draising and other terrible puns...

For the next stage of fundraising my company has produced a free to download and play card solitaire game – why? because we can + hopefully it will generate some funds.

What we now need is a large volume of people to download and play the game. Therefore if you can all encourage your friends, families, colleagues, enemies, relatives, pets etc to download and play the game for a while hopefully they can have a bit of fun for free whilst helping the club fundraise without costing you any money!

Please feel free to either contact myself or any of the other committee members if you have questions about this initiative. Below is a short FAQ which hopefully answers most of the questions.

Current amount from this initiative: To end Dec 2018 = £1500
Thanks

FAQ

What is it?

Xmas TriPeaks Solitaire is a fairly simple card solitaire game (an app) you can download to your phone, tablet or PC.

What devices does it work on?

We have produced a version that works on iOS devices (iPhones + iPads), Android devices and Windows 10 PCs.

Is it safe?

ZingMagic produce games for various platforms on a commercial basis. We follow all the best industry practices and the games are only available from their respective app stores – so they get checked by the store owners – Apple, Google, Microsoft.

How does a free game generate any money?

The game contains adverts. By displaying adverts the game generates some revenue from the advertizers. (A bit like commercial TV stations such as ITV, C4 or C5).

Do we need to click on the adverts?

No! Please, please only click on adverts if they are genuinely of interest to you. The game will still generate some revenue even if you don’t click on any adverts.

Where do the adverts come from?

The adverts are provided by Google, via their AdMob environment. All adverts are family friendly + have been verified as such by Google.

How many adverts do we need to display?

Unfortunately its a lot. Very roughly in the UK, every 1000 adverts displayed will only generate around 20p!. This is why we need you to get as many of your friends, colleagues, relatives, enemies, pets etc to download and play the game for a while.

What happens if we reach the target?

In the unlikely event that we generate more than the 10K required for the replacement astro pitch from this initiative, all income will continue to go towards the club for other projects.
