For long time Bomber member, Peter, Essendon’s round 8 clash with Brisbane wasn’t memorable just for the great result. The Northcote resident slotted home four shots at goal – including the money shot from 50 metres out – to win round one of the ‘3 from 3’ competition.
""It was pretty exciting in front of a big crowd,"" he said.
""But I have to admit I was most nervous when I had my first shot from the goal square – I didn’t want to miss from there.""
Peter was a winner, and now it’s your chance.
Calling all super boots – your golden opportunity to win up to $10,000 has arrived.
Thanks to 3 mobile, the major sponsor of the Essendon Football Club, you can now experience the thrill of kicking a goal in front of a Bomber home crowd and walking away up to $10,000 richer.
Entries for round two of the ‘3 from 3’ competition (Round 11, Friday night) open today, Monday, 4 June.
Entries close at 12pm this Wednesday, 6 June.
You can register for the competition at essendonfc.com.au or three.com.au.
Fans wishing to enter the competition need only complete the on-line entry form and answer the featured question for that particular round. The first three valid entires will be drawn out and win the chance to kick for the cash.
If you are an existing 3 mobile customer you will be kicking for $10,000, If not you will be kicking for $5,000.
Each contestant will be given three shots from directly in front of goal. The first shot will be from the goal-square, the second shot from a spot 25 metres out from goal and the third from 35 metres out from goal.
After the three fans have attempted shots from each distance, scores will be tallied and the person with the most points from the three attempts will have the opportunity to kick for goal from the 50-metre mark for the chance to win money. Should our contestants be tied, they will kick for a share of the money.
Each week the three participants will receive an Essendon Football Club jumper and EFC/3 cap that they will get to wear during the competition. The weekly winner will also receive a 3 mobile package. They will also receive two tickets to a nominated Essendon home game.
