The Boardroom Meets the Try Line
Let’s face it—traditional networking events can sometimes feel a little stale. The same venues, the same rigid small talk, and the same recycled business cards. But what if you could swap the stuffy meeting room for the roar of the crowd, the thrill of a last-minute try, and the company of fellow North Devon professionals?
We have exactly that opportunity for you.
On Saturday, September 26th, we are inviting local businesses, entrepreneurs, and professionals to step away from their desks and head down to Barnstaple Rugby Club for an afternoon that perfectly blends high-energy sport with genuine business connection.
Make It a Corporate Day Out: Exclusive Table Bookings
We are offering local businesses the chance to book a dedicated table for ten people, transforming a great day out into a structured networking and dining event.
By reserving a table, you and your guests will enjoy a sit-down meal in the comfort of the clubhouse, away from the queues and the hustle, allowing you to focus entirely on your conversations and connections. It is the perfect way to entertain key clients, reward your top-performing team, or simply gather a group of fellow professionals for a relaxed meal before the action unfolds.
Imagine it: excellent food, great company, and the electric atmosphere of match day—all wrapped into one seamless experience. A table booking guarantees you a prime spot to enjoy the hospitality, with the freedom to move between the dining area and the stands as the game progresses.
This is corporate entertainment at its most authentic and enjoyable.
The Event: A Match You Won’t Want to Miss
This isn’t just any friendly kickabout. We are hosting a pivotal fixture in the National 2 West league, as our very own Barnstaple Chiefs go head-to-head with a formidable Lymm side. With promotion places and local pride on the line, the intensity on the pitch will be matched only by the buzz off it.
Whether you are a die-hard rugby fan or someone who simply enjoys a great atmosphere, this is the perfect setting to unwind, recharge, and engage with the local business community in a completely different context.
Why This Works: The Power of Social Networking
There is something uniquely effective about networking in a relaxed, social environment. When the pressure of a formal meeting is removed, conversations flow more naturally. Relationships built over shared experiences—like cheering for a home team or debating a referee’s decision—tend to stick.
By attending, you are not just supporting local sport; you are positioning your business at the heart of the North Devon community. You will have the chance to:
-
Connect with like-minded professionals across a variety of industries.
-
Strengthen existing relationships with clients and colleagues in a more personal setting.
-
Raise your business profile by being visible within the local area.
Hospitality and Atmosphere
We believe that good business is done over good company, and we are pulling out all the stops to ensure you and your guests are well looked after. From excellent food and drink options to a warm, welcoming clubhouse, Barnstaple Rugby Club offers the perfect backdrop for a memorable day out.
Bring your team along as a reward for their hard work, or invite your top clients to show your appreciation. Either way, you’ll leave with more than just a match result—you’ll leave with new connections and fresh opportunities.
Join Us and Fill the Stands
This is more than just a rugby match. It is a chance to celebrate everything that makes North Devon’s business community strong—resilience, teamwork, and local pride.
We want to see the stands filled with the faces of our local businesses. So, gather your colleagues, invite your clients, and come and experience a different kind of networking.
Let’s show our support for the Chiefs and prove that North Devon business is just as powerful off the pitch as it is on it.
