Westcliff RFC

Kimura Performance Partnership

Case Study

Brief Overview

Kimura Performance decided to support a local female Essex rugby club, Westcliff Rugby Clubs ladies fist team, dubbed ‘The Lionesses’. They currently play in the NC2 South East division after gaining promotion in their debut year. The team was in need of financial support.

Outcome

Kimura Performance pledged £10,000 as main sponsor of the first team to aid with training equipment, match logistics and general funding of the club.

The Results

Having lost the first game, went unbeaten for the rest of the season and won the league. This is a community driven exercise as the ladies’ game has come on leaps and bounds but heavily underfunded. Having historic strong ties to Westcliff Rugby Club, past and present the decision was an easy one to make. Kimura Performance continues to look forward to fulfilling a long, rewarding relationship with the Lionesses.
