“St Ives Rugby Club is extremely grateful to all of the businesses and volunteers that support the club,” said chair Russell Baragwaneth. “St Ives RFC is very much at the heart of the community, and it was wonderful to invite everyone that supports us into the club to thank them properly.
“With over 40 sponsors currently supporting St Ives RFC, it was wonderful to see so many at the clubhouse this Saturday, along with volunteers that have supported us over the years.”
This season has seen 42 businesses partner with the club in a range of ways, from funds raised via advertising boards and kit sponsorship, through to services donated as gifts in kind.
Not only has this helped the club financially, but it has also brought more visitors to enjoy matches and add to the atmosphere.
It is an exciting time for St Ives RFC, with major developments under way to improve the grounds and clubhouse, supporting players and providing better facilities for those who visit.
St Ives has a history of more than 140 years of rugby, and the club has played an important role in the town. It has seen players reach their potential, youth come up through the club, families enjoy social connections, and the clubhouse host events from christenings to weddings.
