We're Looking for Further Assistance:
Sponsor a Bus Advertising Package:  If you can't afford to go for one of the bigger packages - why don't you sponsor a junior or senior team bus for the day?  We'll set it at a standard £250 to assist us, as opposed to pay the whole thing, get your company banner installed across the back, we'll do the pictures with the team, we'll throw in a ticket for the Annual Dinner on the 16th May and you can even jump on the bus for the day. 

 Schools Coaching Sponsorship:  We can be totally flexible on this package - its mainly a funding package to help us get the coaches around the schools - great for getting the permission from your boss since this is a 100% community programme.  The Club's doing its bit for the Community by bringing sport and rugby to 2000kids.  Can you help us deliver as well?

 


CLiK Development CLiK Development
CLiK Development Ltd. is an Aberdeen based web design and development company specialising in e-commerce.

They generously offered to provide our club with a brand new website that will help raise our profile online and keep our many members supplied with the latest news.

Lawrence of Kemnay

Lawrence of Kemnay has been helping the Club with coach's cars for the past 4 seasons (well apart from when Roids and Weasel came here and neither could drive!).  With-out this invaluable assistance, there is no way that our coaches could travel throughout the area teaching kids in about 20 schools how to play with odd shaped balls!  Tell Gavin and his team that you're associated with Garioch RFC and he'll give you a massive discount!

Alpha Plus Groundcare

Director Steve Matthews, was associated with Garioch for a lot of years and has pleaded with us for the last 4 seasons to let us plaster the company name over the front of our home and away shirts.  Last year Alpha Plus provided shorts and socks for the first team squad as well as a new set of shirts and this season has progressed to warm up training tops and bottoms as well plus an input into our RDO funding. An absolutely brilliant and much appreciated sponsorship.


Weatherford

Weatherford UK has recognised the benefit of rugby football in the NE of scotland for some time and invests in the Club in several different ways. It supports the Juniors with the provision of shirts for the primary school kids, gets some advertising and entertainment from the Match sponsorship packages and additional advertising from the Marquee Package.

For the 3rd year running Laurel sponsored the Shetland Match on the 10th November when we won with a bonus point as well.  For season 2008-09, he'll switch his alliance to the Orkney game in January.


Baker Hughes Inc
Baker Oiltools has been assisting our grass-roots rugby for a few years now.  For the last couple of season we have diverted BOT's funding directly into our Schools Coaching Initiative where we coach about 2000kids in 22 schools over the complete 4-term school year.  These kids all receive a proper block of rugby for a term.  If it were not for company assistance like BOT's we could not conduct this excellent job. 

Stable Services
Stable Services sponsored our first home League game against Huntly. George Myles and Gordon Ross pitched up for the meal in the Kintore Arms Hotel, the picture and watched the game. Thank goodness they came outside at half time when the rain went off, because we turned it around then and won the game!

Smith Bits

Our second home match was sponsored by Smith Bits and theirs was another really successful day with a 5 league points win over the well drilled Ross Sutherland team.

Smith have got so much satisfaction out of its association with Garioch that it will take 2 packages this season - the first and last home games.  


UWG Ltd
UWG, under the guidance of Graham Dallas, has come onboard as a new sponsor this season and sponsored our home match against Aberdeen University on the 1st December where 23-17 was a great result for the home team. The University has been a rejuvenated team in the last 2 seasons and was a tough bunch to beat.

Oil States Industries
Derek Wetherly of Oil States Industries ended up sponsoring the Lossiemouth game but, with all the re-aranging for Moray and Lossie, couldn't actually make the re-arranged fixture.  Still - we'd managed to have a meal and a few drinks on the Saturday it should have been on. OSI will be on board again for a 5th season and this continued support greatly assists.

Westerton
Robin Porter of Westerton sponsored the Moray re-match game which turned out to be crucial for promotion.  Once again, Robin is a repeat investor, having started helping us last season.

Halliburton DBS
Halliburton DBS - the Security bits division - sponsored our match on 19th January when we were royally gubbed by Wanderers after a 7 week layoff from playing. Our own Richard Gordon arranged the Halliburton involvement and allowed yours truly to meet up with old friend Martin Harvey again after a bit of a layoff.

Nautronix Marine Technology Solutions
Nautronix has been involved for the last 5 seasons, providing coach jackets in the first year then switching to the Christmas Raffle prize.   This year, it has generously committed to £1000 for the Christmas Draw plus a new batch of coaches jackets.
