Colin Hickford, from Knayton, is this week celebrating winning a £3,250 festive jackpot in the Yorkshire Pride Lottery.

Having been a member of the Lottery since its very first week Mr. Hickford's loyalty has paid-off in spectacular fashion.

Everyone at Headingley Carnegie offers him hearty congratulations. By his own admission he has a daughter who "spends money like water" so I'm sure the windfall will go to good use!

In the New Year we will organise a cheque presentation photo opportunity with some of the players.......whether there's any of the cash left by then is entirely up to his daughter!

If you would like to be in with a chance of emulating Mr. Hickford then please contact the Lottery Office on 0871-6203640 or email jane.ferguson@yorkshireccc.com. Alternatively you can download application forms HERE.

Happy Christmas to all of our members and supporters. Let's hope 2011 is a great year for Galey and his troops!
