Other Sporting Events

The following major sporting events form part of our portfolio:

  • The Ashes
    In 1882 at The Oval, England lost to Australia by seven runs. It was believed that English cricket had died and a stump was burnt, placed in an urn and taken by the team for the return match – which England won.

    In 2005 at The Oval, the new OCS Stand was opened and this gave spectators the best view of the England cricket team retaining The Ashes in magnificent style, both on an off the pitch.

  • The Ryder Cup
    Held in 2006 at The K Club in Ireland. The challenge for us was to feed 7,000 corporate hospitality guests each day. Using local produce, home grown staff and the logistics of ensuring enough china, glass, cutlery and cooking equipment from the U.K. was safely delivered and installed.

    We have received rave reviews from the organisers and it was arguably the best ever Ryder Cup – not only from the point of view of the golf played, the result and the team spirit but also the catering!

  • BMW Golf Championship
    Wentworth, Virginia Water.

    The BMW Championship is widely regarded as the flagship event on the European Tour. The Championship was established back in 1955 when Ken Bousfield was inaugurated as the first champion at Pannel and its subsequent list of champions reads like a who’s who in the game of golf.
