At the start of 2013 LV= Retirement Solutions in Hitchin announced their continued support for Hitchin Rugby Club.
Increasing the length of sponsorship to three years and the pledge of further support will enable the ongoing development and support of rugby in the local area. With over 450 Mini & Youth players, a thriving academy as well as senior ladies and men’s teams, this sponsorship has a real impact across the area.
Accompanied by a number of Hitchin RFC players, Hedley, the club mascot, paid a visit to the Hitchin offices of LV= to say a huge thank you.
As well as presenting Steve Knight and the LV= team with a framed shirt, the Hitchin Rugby Club provided an update on plans for the coming seasons.
LV=’s continued investment will provide numerous opportunities for youth players to experience live premiership rugby, the development of a new women’s rugby initiative as well as a fully integrated schools programme across Hitchin…….all in addition to the already busy schedule of events at Hitchin Rugby Club.
This unique partnership has really set the bar high on how local sports clubs, coupled with local business, can impact and support the local community.
