THE owners of Hotel Wrexham have announced a new partnership with a local rugby club.
Along with plans to hold fundraising events for Wrexham Rugby Club, Hotel Wrexham (formerly Holt Lodge Hotel) has already provided new signage at the club's ground on Bryn Estyn Road and new goal protectors for the goal posts. Arrangements are underway to fundraise for a digital scoreboard, amongst other improvements to the main pitch.
More than 300 local people of all ages play in a range of teams for Wrexham Rugby Club, which will celebrate its centenary next year. Commenting on the new partnership with Hotel Wrexham, club chairman Nick Partington said: "Hotel Wrexham has been absolutely fantastic in providing support to us and helping us build relationships with other local organisations too.

"We are very proud of our local rugby community and we are delighted that we can continue to include teams in every age group, from the under-7s up to our two senior men's teams, our ladies' team and our inclusive team, the Wrexham Rhinos."
Steven Hesketh, one of the owners of Hotel Wrexham, said: "The Hotel Wrexham team is very pleased to support this excellent local rugby club, which has played such a vital role in the community for nearly 100 years.
"These are tough times for grassroots sports and we are pleased to be able to do what we can to provide support. Special thanks should go to Dan Coggins at ASAP Signs and Amy Chadwick from NetWorld Sports who have worked with us to provide the signage and equipment."
