Villa PowerShot · Weekly Rewards

Villa PowerShot

How it works & what you win

Everyone who plays is rewarded. Pick the correct player in the men's or women's competition and you qualify for that week's draw — the winner receives a shirt signed by the two players who dueled that week. The fan whose prediction is closest to the actual winning speed wins the Closest Shot prize: a shirt signed by the whole Villa first team (men's) or the whole women's team (women's), plus a selection of Aston Villa club merchandise and a specially struck limited edition Aston Villa club medal.

Three reward levels

Level 1

Everyone Who Plays

Every valid prediction

Every fan who plays receives the participation reward — whether your prediction lands or not.

Level 2

Pick the Correct Player

Correct player, any speed

Pick the player who records the fastest shot and you qualify for that competition's weekly draw. The draw winner receives a shirt signed by the two players who dueled that week — one winner in the men's competition and one in the women's competition.

A proposal for Chasing the Stigma

PowerShot × On Your Side

On Your Side is Chasing the Stigma's suicide prevention in sport toolkit. PowerShot could take it beyond the stadium — into every fan's phone, every week, at every club.

Fans come for the football. Every fan who plays could leave with On Your Side and a route to Hub of Hope — and could complement the Premier League's Together Against Suicide commitment.

Chasing the Stigma

The charity behind the idea

On Your Side

The toolkit every fan receives

Hub of Hope

Where fans find support

The shot gets the fan to stop.

The conversation is the point.

Concept integration — any campaign partnership, messaging and support pathways would be developed with the relevant partners and subject to approval


Your On Your Side pack

You came for the football.
Take something useful with you.

As part of a potential Aston Villa PowerShot pilot, every fan who completes the online experience could be invited to access an On Your Side resource pack — helping people recognise when someone may be struggling, start a conversation and connect with appropriate support.

On Your Side toolkit

Chasing the Stigma's suicide prevention in sport toolkit. Official content would be presented exactly as authorised by its owners.

Check in on a mate

A simple prompt to reach out to someone you haven't heard from in a while.

How to start the conversation

A few words that open a door — no script, no expertise needed.

How to listen

What to do when someone opens up, and why staying with them matters.

Hub of Hope

Find support near you through Chasing the Stigma's Hub of Hope. In crisis: Samaritans 116 123.

Concept proposal — access, distribution and presentation of official On Your Side materials would be subject to permission and approval from the relevant rights holders


Support when it matters

Hub of Hope
