A record 33 teams attended this year’s event at the ULLESTHORPE COURT HOTEL AND GOLF CLUB in South Leicestershire on 24th May. This is the 8th such annual event that the hotel has hosted which raises much needed funds to recycle new and used rugby kit and distributes to disadvantaged youngsters around the world.  

The beer buggies were rolling all day and this year the evening entertainment hit full swing with top comedian 'THAT FUNNY BLIND GUY' (Jamie MacDonald) enthralling the audience with tales of his myopic adventures.

The fun continued with British Lions rugby Legends and some of the World’s top football and rugby referees giving their views on a variety of sporting and officiating topics.

Regional Director Gary Welsh of SOS KIT AID said ‘We have the perfect venue for our event……..a superb golf course (although normally needs a bit of repair after!) and hotel facilities so the majority of attendees can sleep it off at the end of a very long day and night!
