Proud Sponsors of Stocksbridge RFC
“I first started going down to the
club as a social member. I went
to a New Year’s party, loved the
atmosphere and so kept going. I’ve
sponsored the club for five or six
years now and hope that they can
bounce straight back up. They have
great spirit and I’d like to take this
opportunity to wish them good
luck for the new season.”
Scott Woolley, Globe Holidays
“We’ve sponsored Stocksbridge
for two months now; some of
the players were customers in
the pub and started to bring
more customers and so we
agreed to support the club. I’d
like to take this opportunity to
wish the club good luck for the
season and we look forwards
to seeing you!” We brew fantastic hand crafted beers
from the finest Loxley Spring Water.

Community Challenges Ambitions
“We are absolutely a community
club; we are in the centre of a small
town on the outskirts of Sheffield, we
have a thriving clubhouse, open during
the week, there are several events,
festivals and other attractions.
We have close links with the schools
and with our new community business
networking scheme introduced for the
first time for this season, the community
will truly benefit from the club and vice
versa.” “We compete with other sports and
activities as well as playstation and
other gaming sites for time. We have to
ensure that the experience at our club is
a positive one for all. Our young team is
growing together, but at some stage will
grow old together too, so we have to
plan for the future with the help of the
junior section. Money is always an issue
however, we are very fortunate to have
a very generous set of partners who
sponsor the club fully.” “Club ambitions can be easily
confused with team ambitions, over
the next five years we want to establish
ourselves as a contender for Yorkshire
Division 2 rugby, have a thriving
development team, and a robust junior
section and I think we’re on the right
lines. As a club we need to develop
and grow into the 21st century, move
forward with the times and realise how
influential rugby can be on a young
person’s upbringing.”
