Meetings combine business with sporting success stories

Attendees at the final Bedford Blues Business Lunch of 2022 were treated to a guest visit from Director of Rugby Mike Rayer to hear all his thoughts from the recent international window and looking towards a hugely important end-of-year period on the field for Bedford Blues.

Bedford Blues were delighted to resume their Business Lunches back in March 2022 following a near two-year absence due to the COVID-19 pandemic. In the nine months that have followed, they have welcomed nearly 500 guests through the door with sell out capacities achieved for most.

The popular business networking events, sponsored by Steve Monico Ltd, are a great opportunity for local businesses to meet in informal settings. The meetings include a two-course meal, the opportunity to meet players and coaching staff, and share some insights into both the rugby and business world.

As well as Mike Rayer, guests since resumption have included Chief Operating Officer, Gareth Alred; Blues Forwards Coach, Sean McCarthy as well as multiple members of the playing squad including the Championship’s current leading marksman, Will Maisey.

The Business Lunches will continue from this month. But with so many attendances reaching capacity, interested parties are encouraged to book in early before it’s too late!

The upcoming dates are Wednesday January 25, Wednesday February 22, Wednesday March 29. The event starts at 12.30pm at Bedford Blues Rugby Club, Goldington Road, Bedford, MK40 3NF and places are £22 plus VAT (£18 +VAT for club sponsors).
