LINK 51 ACHIEVES COMMUNITY SPONSORSHIP SUCCESS WITNESSED BY A CROWD OF 10,000 PEOPLE!

Rarely can the Link 51 logo have been displayed as proudly as it was recently at the home of Leicester Tigers’ Rugby Club.

Telford Hornets’ combined under 9’s and under 10’s rugby team reached the final of a tag tournament which culminated at the famous Leicester ground in front of a crowd of no less than 10,000 people. Shirt sponsors Link 51 have always been happy to contribute to such a deserving local sports club and are delighted at the success achieved by the team. A narrow defeat to an older Melton side on the day cannot detract from victories along the way against Nottingham, Sutton Coldfield and Hinckley. It builds on the success of the under 9’s team which, in another excellent year, saw them remain unbeaten against any competitive Shropshire side for the entire season.

“We are in no doubt that it was a tremendous thrill for everybody involved to take part in the tournament at a major venue and everybody can be proud of the achievement,” comments Link 51’s Managing Director, John Halliday. “With our ongoing commitment to the local community we were just as proud to see the well-recognised Link 51 logo running around the pitch which such commitment and enthusiasm!”
