A February competition offered a first prize of �250 of Build Center vouchers to the winners and Reed's entry proved to be the national winner.
Reed's entry was submitted by club fundraising manager John Heslam who said: "The �250 of vouchers have already arrived with us and will come in very handy in relation to a number of pre-season maintenance projects we have planned for the next few months".
Reed players are already gearing up for the new season in they will operate a Saturday fourth 11 for the first time.
Spring training nets are already underway for adults and colt members from the ages of nine to 15.
