Corporate hospitality with
a commitment to charity

Meanwhile, as UK leaders in sports hospitality, we’re pleased to be helping a new generation of young British sportspeople break through with our support for youth cricket in Warwickshire, Truro Fencing Club’s Gold scheme and also for AFC St Blazey’s youth football team.

    Support

    Warwickshire CCC

    Gala Events are delighted to sponsor the annual Warwickshire County Cricket Club (WCCC) Youth Dinner and Awards evening. The evening is the only event which gets players from every boys, girls, men’s and women’s team together under one roof, recognising performances from the whole season.

    Gala Events have had hospitality facilities at Edgbaston for over ten years now and also run their sporting dinners and lunches within the stadium’s impressive banqueting facilities. WCCC’s Elite Cricket Development Manager Paul Greetham said “We are really grateful for the support of Gala Events, which helps us to put on such a fabulous event and recognise the performances of the next batch of players, who will hopefully one day be going on to represent the Warwickshire and maybe England teams.”

    Gala Events Director Alan George said, “We are proud to put something back into youth cricket in Warwickshire. Having grown up in the county and running packages at the stadium in the form of matchday hospitality and sporting lunches/dinners, it is nice to be a part of and support such a worthwhile evening.”

Starting with Wolverhampton Wanderers Football Club in charge of Advertising Sales and moving on to Birmingham City Football Club, as Football Sales Manager, he managed the whole process of hospitality at St Andrews. This included Match day hospitality, Sporting Dinners, Five a side Football on the hallowed turf and Away Executive Trips.

William George (Director)

William has significant business experience, having run his own print, marketing and advertising businesses over the last 40 years. This included running the marketing campaigns for the famous Aberystwyth Cliff Railway and organising Marketing and Sales advice seminars for many UK businesses. William is a member of the Warwickshire Cricket Board, plays regular golf, is a school governor and enjoys spending time with his family and friends.

Dom Sibley (Brand Ambassador)

At Gala Events we are thrilled to have signed up with new England opener Dom Sibley as he begins what we are sure will be a long and fruitful Test career with his debut in New Zealand. Dom burst on to the county scene in 2013 and in only his third first-class cricket match, while still a student at Whitgift School, he scored a double century against Yorkshire aged just 18 years and 21 days. In compiling a brilliant 242, he became the youngest double-centurion in the history of the County Championship, the second-youngest Englishman to score a first-class double hundred and the thirteenth youngest double-centurion of any nationality! After building his reputation at Surrey he moved to Warwickshire where he has excelled over the last couple of seasons. Patient, determined and technically tight, Sibley was the only man to score over a thousand Division One Championship runs in 2019, knocking an incredible 1,324, with five centuries, five half-centuries and an average of almost 70 – a particularly impressive record in a season when ball dominated bat.

Since making his England Test debut in late 2019 against New Zealand, Dom has cemented an opener spot after a fantastic start to his international career. His debut century in the Second Test against South Africa proved to be a match-winning one, a superbly crafted 133 not out providing the foundation for England’s first win at Newlands since 1957, and the first century by an England opener at the stadium since Jack Hobbs in 1910! Already averaging over 40, we are sure Dom will go on to have a long and hugely successful England career. We wish Dom the very best of luck for the future and very much look forward to working with him at future events.

Mark Adair (Brand Ambassador)

Up-and-coming all-rounder Mark Adair is now firmly established in the Ireland team in all formats. After making his international debut in the One Day International against England in May 2019, followed by his Test debut also against England in July 2019 (where he took 6 wickets at Lord’s), Mark was one of only 19 players awarded a central contract by Cricket Ireland. Since then he has played in 33 matches for his country in all formats, taking 49 wickets and scoring over 300 runs. In September 2019, he was named in Ireland’s squad for the 2019 ICC T20 World Cup Qualifier tournament in the United Arab Emirates. He was the leading wicket-taker for Ireland in the tournament, with twelve dismissals in eight matches. Mark has also featured for Warwickshire in the County Championship and short form tournaments. We wish Mark all the very best as he continues his promising international career and we look forward to working with him at future events.

Pete Graves (Media Ambassador)

A passionate Newcastle United fan, Pete enjoyed a swift rise through the broadcasting ranks to become one of the most recognisable faces on Sky Sports. After leaving university, Pete started his broadcasting career with the hospital radio show Radio Tyneside, before working in the local Metro Radio, and then ITV Tyneside as a sports reporter. Since 2009 he has worked at Sky Sports, mainly as a presenter, where his passion for sport and all-round knowledge are amongst his greatest strengths. Over the past few years Pete has become a great asset as a regular host of our events, where he has conducted revealing and fascinating interviews with some of the biggest names in sport. We are delighted to have Pete as an official Gala Events brand ambassador and look forward to many more years working together!
