A Draw for Skipton RUFC, but a big win for Shepherds

On Saturday 8th October 2011 Shepherd Partnership sponsored the West Leeds v’s Skipton rugby game, entertaining 50 guests (a mix of clients and business contacts) with an afternoon of informal networking, good beer, beef rolls, and rugby!

Despite the fact that Skipton’s so-called ‘revenge game’ actually ended with a 6 all draw, the event was a great success for Shepherd Partnership. Feedback from the guests was positive, and a good time was had by all! Comments included,
"I had a great time on Saturday. Many thanks to all at Shepherd Partnership." – Matthew Mason, John Mason Printers.

"..thank you [Adam], Andrew and Alan for an excellent time on Saturday. I am sure the rugby was entertaining although unfortunately I did not get out of the bar. This was despite an attempt to do so. I did have my coat on at one stage…" – Justin Birch, QualitySolicitors Mewies.

"...thank you for your hospitality at Skipton RUFC last Saturday. We were made to feel very welcome by everyone from The Shepherd Partnership and thoroughly enjoyed the game which ended in a fair result, albeit Skipton were the better team!" – Louise Mitchell, Convenience Hire.

"..a really enjoyable afternoon. It was a good opportunity to chat to local people in different industries in a relaxed atmosphere." – Ian Hall, New Laithe Farm Butchers

"..had a great time on Saturday, and would like to thank you and your colleagues for looking after us and making us feel welcome." – Tim Banks, Mr Scratchings Ltd.

Many thanks from all at Shepherd Partnership to everyone who joined us at this thoroughly enjoyable event.
