Ultra sponsors youth rugby

31 May 2008

Ultra has re-enforced its commitment to the local community and the welfare of young people by sponsoring an end of season tour by a youth rugby team.

The company were the principal sponsors of the Liskeard & Looe Under 15 rugby team on their recent tour of Ireland – providing, not only assistance with travel and accommodation, but also tour polo shirts. Such tours provide valuable life experiences for young people as well fostering the established benefits of rugby as a sport such as personal fitness and the importance of teamwork.

Andy Hancock, the tour’s leader, said, “Liskeard & Looe Junior Rugby Football Club are most appreciative to Ultra for their generous sponsorship, without such support these sorts of tours are simply not possible”. David Ham, Ultra’s Managing Director added, “We were delighted to help with the tour, it fits not only with the company’s particular commitment to the 14-16 age group and to local schools but also to our wider aims of assisting with the government’s Every Child Matters initiative”.
