SMITH AND SONS THROW WEIGHT BEHIND OXTON PARKONIANS RUFC

Property consultants, Smith and Sons, has agreed to sponsor the Oxton Parkonians Rugby Club.

The long-established Wirral based business and rugby club have formalised a relationship with a sponsorship agreement to include a Smith and Sons advertising board stationed permanently at the ground as well as logos on the rugby post protectors. 

Ryan Evans, Residential Property Manager at Smith and Sons has played with the club for many years. He explained: “It’s great to see this strong and positive alliance made. As a member of the Smiths team and a member of the Oxton Parkonians rugby club, I have been facilitating the agreement which I knew would be a great fit for both!” 

“For the Parkonians, it's fantastic to have the support of a brilliant Wirral business and we’re so pleased that the company have agreed to sponsor us.”

Oxton Parkonians, formed by the old boys of Birkenhead Park High School in 1928, became an association in 1931, moving to Holm Lane in 1948. The club includes a men’s rugby team which consists of a 1st team and a 2nd team, as well as a full junior section with both boys and girls playing from six years onwards. 

Kenny Cooke, Chairman of Oxton Parkonians Association added: “As a community sports club serving the local area for over 90 years, we are pleased to be associated with an established company such as Smith and Sons, who themselves have been serving the local (business) community for a considerably longer period of time. We look forward to a long and mutually rewarding relationship.”
