Plumbers, heating engineers and other trade professionals are being invited to take part in the Screwfix ‘Back of the Van’ football challenge. At selected stores across the UK, there will be a series of head-to-head competitions to see who can get the most footballs in to the back of a van in just 30 seconds.
Those who take up the challenge will be entered in to the ‘Back of the Van’ national prize draw, sponsored by DeWalt, and be in with the chance to win the ‘Ultimate Viewing Experience’ prize worth £5000. Everyone who participates will receive a free gift and the highest scoring contestant at each store will be awarded with a DeWalt combi drill. The first events will take place in Park Royal (London), Crawley and Portsmouth on 9th June.
John Mewett, Marketing Director at Screwfix comments: “We know many of our trade customers have a love of the national game, so we wanted to offer a bit of fun during June, when they’re popping by to stock up. We look forward to seeing who has secret skills, but encourage anyone who wants to have a go to take on our challenge!”
For those who cannot make it to store there is a chance to take part and win online at facebook.com/Screwfix. The ‘Back of the Van’ scratch card game is available on Facebook. Players simply need to match two symbols to win and claim the prize. Partnered with DeWalt, winners could be walking away with a trade essential – either a top of the range DeWalt Power Tool bundle worth £600, a DeWalt combi drill, 10 per cent off at Screwfix or builder’s gloves.
