Warrener Stewart proudly sponsor local rugby club – Rosslyn Park FC
Sealing their twenty five year relationship, Fulham based accountants, Warrener Stewart, are to sponsor one of London’s oldest and best known senior rugby clubs, Rosslyn Park for the forthcoming season 2015/16.
This prestigious rugby club located along the Upper Richmond Road currently boasts over 3,000 members with players at all levels:– minis and youth, club and vets, girls and ladies, and not least the senior 1st XV which finished 2nd in the RFU National League 1 last season, just missing out on promotion to the Championship for a second year running.
Chartered accountants Warrener Stewart has a long and close association with the club, initiated by founding principal Peter Warrener who acted as Treasurer, Vice Chairman and finally Chairman. Nick Morgan, current joint managing director at Warrener Stewart, acted as Assistant Treasurer to Peter and went on to be Treasurer for a ten year stint, followed by a further five years as International Ticket Secretary. Nick Morgan and the tax team at Warrener Stewart, continue to provide professional advice and assistance to the club when required.
Nick comments; “It has been an honour to be involved with such a historic rugby club and help it negotiate the difficult path from the Corinthian era to the professional age, while continuing to thrive. A number of contemporary clubs were not so lucky, although luck has had little to do with it.”
“Since we no longer volunteer at the club we decided we wanted to continue our support through sponsorship. Next season again promises to be very exciting, with the 1st XV strong contenders for promotion and the addition of a new, state of the art, all-weather 4G pitch at the club’s Roehampton ground.”
