Ad Agency wins Newspaper Challenge
25/07/06
Ward Lovett, the Birmingham based ad and PR agency has won their heat of the Birmingham Mail 5-a-side challenge with a team described as ‘old stalwarts’ by the organisers, a label hotly refuted by ex-Wolves play-maker, now advertising director Nick Lovett; “This summer, we’ve done more watching than playing, but we accepted the challenge of putting a team forward for a beach football tournament and did rather well, which gave us the inspiration to play a bit more. With a combination of staff and clients, we had quite a formidable team – both in looks and performance. It may have been a while since we were in our footballing hey day I’d prefer to think of us as experienced rather than stalwarts.
When we were invited to take part in the Birmingham Mail event, everyone was keen to join in and I’m pleased that we did so well.”
The event, held Star City’s new Goals facility at was played in fantastic spirit and some well known names made it through to the later stages of the competition. They included Debenhams, the National Indoor Arena, and Anthony Gill, as well as Vagdama, who joined Ward Lovett in the heat final.
The victorious 2-1 ad agency team are now taking their 5-a-side a little more seriously, especially with the prospect of a trip to Prague if they win the overall tournament. They are also looking for other tournaments to play in.
