Punters Clubs: What are they and how do they Work?

A punters club is a group of people who share the same interest in betting on horses or other sports, generally mates getting together for a bit of fun, banter and hopefully win a bit of cash. However it can also be a professional occupation for some.

They are a form of social club and they are found in many countries and since covid, and the rise of online betting Apps, seems to continually grow to support the growth of punters clubs or punting syndicates. 
These clubs typically have members who follow the same type of betting strategy. They also share tips and techniques with each other to improve their chances of winning. 
 

Origins of Punters Clubs

A Punters Club is an organisation or social group that is dedicated to the sport of horse racing or other sports. They provide a variety of services for their members, such as betting odds, race results, and horse racing news.
A punters club was founded in 1887 by William Hill, who was a successful bookmaker. He wanted to give his clients a place where they could go for all the information they needed about horse racing. This has grown into more a social outlet where a Punters Club provides services to their members. They also have live streaming of races on their website which are available to watch for free with no sign up required, these capabilities make it easier for punters clubs to watch their bets.

My Experience

The punters club I am in provides a great opportunity to get together with mates, socialise and share a few stories.  

We run our punters club so we have cash for a weekend away, we bet half of our funds and bank the rest to ensure we have some money in the kitty to enjoy a weekend away with my mates. The more we win over the course of the year determines where we go and what we can spend.
