TF family day a winner

 

trophy time 3

UK: Clients of air conditioning and refrigeration distributor TF Solutions recently enjoyed a family day with a difference at the FA’s National Football Centre.

The event, which was sponsored by Fujitsu and National Refrigerants, offered a rare chance for 87 attendees to soak up the atmosphere and enjoy a day of training at the ground that is the centre for all coaching and development work undertaken by the FA, and the training and preparation venue for the England football team.

The invited customers toured the facilities at the Burton upon Trent ground and each was presented with an England shirt, complete with their name printed on the back. A coaching session followed on the prestigious St George’s Park pitch and a Dads v Kids match. Afterwards, the young players received trophies and personalised goodie bags before being treated to a grand tour of the facilities and lunch at the nearby Hilton hotel.

Paul Airey, distribution sales manager of sponsor Fujitsu commented: “One of the best parts of my job is attending the events of our distributors and supporting them in their marketing initiatives. It is important to us as a company that we are present at our distributor’s events, so that we can provide assistance and continue to have a close relationship with them. TF Solutions did a terrific job putting on this day which was family oriented and fun for everyone involved.”

Andy Cherrill, director at TF Solutions, added: “I was delighted with how well the event went and it was great to see our customers and their families enjoying themselves in such an iconic venue.”
