We all have something to shout about sometimes, so here is where the ' BRASS ' have some say by providing some useful information for you to read.
The kind of information that is found in these pages are mainly the minutes from the A.G.M. meetings, and the monthly COACHES meetings.
There has now been a need for a Job Vacancy section which has now been added.
Also any other interesting stuff will be placed here too.
Decathlon is a sports specialist that provides technical sports equipment for over 70 sports under one roof and will soon be opening its 684th store worldwide in Warrington's Orford Park.
We are passionate about supporting sport in the local area and on Wednesday 7th December we are inviting the local sporting community to have a sneak preview of the store. Doors will open from 6-9pm with nibbles and drink provided. Rugby legend Martin Offiah will be in attendance along with guest speaker, Tony Smith. Every guest will receive a goody bag with a £10 voucher to spend in store that evening. The first 50 guests through the door will receive a £20 voucher and a prize of a £300 voucher will be awarded to the club with the most members present on the night. It promises to be a great night and fantastic opportunity to discuss sport in Warrington with like-minded individuals.
So what makes us different to other sports stores? Decathlon has 19 of its own brands which we manufacture ourselves. This allows us to provide highly technical equipment at an affordable price. All of our staff are passionate about their sports and are the 'experts' in their field. For example, in our Sheffield store we have Olympic swimmer James Kirton working on our Watersports department. Imagine receiving advice on goggles and swimsuits from an Olympic swimmer! We are now recruiting for our Warrington store, so if you would like to work day in day out promoting the sport that you love, please send your CV to recruitment.warrington@decathlon.com.
Our aim is to promote participation in sport in Warrington. We can help to promote your club, stage fundraising events and even loan products. Please bring any promotional material to fill our club board at the front of the store which will be read by thousands of customers per week. The store is also a fantastic place to hold fundraising events. Recently, in our Stockport store we raised £800 for the local scout group who cycled the distance to Sweden on one of our exercise bikes. For event or promotional opportunities, please contact our store manager Ross at ross.farrington@decathlon.com.
The opening of the Warrington store marks the launch of our brand new Clubcard scheme which will allow club members to collectively gain points and receive discounts. Individuals can sign up and link their loyalty card to your club so you can earn points while they shop. Clubs will be able to sign up for the scheme as of the VIP evening (7th Dec).
To celebrate the opening, there will be a Family Fun Day on Saturday 10th December. With a climbing wall, speed cage and snowboard simulator it will be a great day out for all the family. The Wolves' very own Richie Myler will be lending a hand in store along with rugby league legend Martin Offiah. We look forward to seeing you there!
