Sponsorship Update – Emily Ruaux

We are thrilled to announce our continued sponsorship of Emily Ruaux – Stanmore’s Sabreuse! Although still only 15 years old she continues to make excellent progress being currently ranked 5th in the U17’s and 9th in the U20’s and 30th in the seniors! Emily finished a highly credible 7th in the U17 National Championships after being knocked out by the eventual winner. In the U20’s Championships she came 8th knocked out again by the eventual winner (same fencer!!) but she came very close being eventually beaten 15-14.

Having recently fenced in Hungary, Poland, Germany and France Emily is excited to be doing so well in all age groups. Her focus for this year is the U17’s World & European Championships whilst her long term ambition is to represent Great Britain in the Olympics. Stanmore is delighted to continue its support of Emily and we are confident her dedication and ambition will result in another fantastic year.

Update on Emily Ruaux our Olympic Hopeful

We are delighted to advise that Emily our 'Sabreuse' continues to make fabulous progress in the fencing world. She is currently 3rd on the U17 selection rankings which was what she aimed for twelve months ago. It is important that Emily maintains her place until December so that she can go to the World Championships and the European Championships. If she succeeds this would be a great opportunity for Emily to fence some of the top cadet fencers who are on the Olympic pathway.

Stanmore's sponsorship has helped Emily to go on an elite training camp which has improved her skills as well as paying for some entries to competitions which earn her ranking points. We hope our continued support will help move Emily closer to her Olympic dream.

We are pleased to announce that we have agreed to support Walshaw Sports Club. We were delighted to be given the opportunity to sponsor the youth presentation night which gave us the opportunity to present the cheque to some of the beneficiaries in person. Our contribution is earmarked to provide improved coaching for the youth cricket team - let's hope we help nurture the next Freddie Flintoff!

Whaley Bridge U-13’s Girls Football update

We are delighted to announce that we have agreed to continue our sponsorship of Whaley Bridge U-13's All Girls Football Team. It is fair to say they struggled during their inaugural season last year amongst much more experienced sides. However they have a solid core of players and the squad has been added to this season - we wish them well.
