We are delighted to be having Lewis W Moody as our The Sporting Club main lunch guest at Quaglino's in London on 7th October.

Lewis needs little introduction. A stellar sporting career saw seven Premiership titles and two European Cups as part of that extraordinary Leicester Tigers team, as well as 71 caps for England Rugby, two for the The British & Irish Lions and the small matter of the Rugby World Cup triumph in 2003.

Last October he was diagnosed with MND and has taken on this huge challenge with typical fight and gusto, fundraising, creating awareness, going on long-distance bike rides and creating much hope in the process.

We will be very pleased to be fundraising for My Name'5 Doddie Foundation on the day and hope to raise as much as we possibly can.

So join us in October, meet one of the nicest human beings in sport and let's all get behind Lewis and the MND community.

Huge congratulations to every single rider who successfully made it to Paris today after four long days riding for Cure Leukaemia.

The team are very proud that The Sporting Club are Day One sponsors and even though injuries prevented our founder Ian Stafford from cycling for the third consecutive year, it was a pleasure for Ian to welcome everybody at the finish line and hand out some of the medals.

The ride began on Thursday in London - Greenwich Park to be precise - and ended in the shadow of the Eiffel Tower.

Chapeau to all riders and the fantastic team at Cure Leukaemia where close to ยฃ500K would have been raised.

A look back to June last year and the two sporting greats we had entertaining our members and their guests: Sir Bradley Wiggins and Zara Tindall.

Both hugely celebrated in their sporting fields and both shared intimate stories and moments from their careers.

Our founder Ian Stafford was absolutely gutted not to have ridden out with all the other 200 plus cyclists today on DAY ONE of the Cure Leukaemia ๐Ÿ‡ฌ๐Ÿ‡ง London 2 Paris ๐Ÿ‡ซ๐Ÿ‡ท bike ride due to the injuries he sustained in a hit and run accident with a car whilst training.

Still, we are delighted that The Sporting Club are DAY ONE sponsors: Greenwich to Folkestone, for another year, which meant Ian was down there early this morning to wish everyone luck and deliver a encouraging speech.

The next four days will be voyages of self-discovery, but that feeling when they enter the streets of Paris on Sunday and see the Eiffel Tower and the finish line are lifetime highlights.

This event raises upwards of ยฃ400K in the fight against blood cancers so well done to the charity for organising such a wonderful event and all those taking part.

In the photos below you can see Cure Leukaemia ambassador and rider Ben Foster (ex Manchester United, Watford, Wrexham and England) and the CEO James McLaughlin.

Bon chance and bon voyage everybody. ๐Ÿšด ๐Ÿšดโ€โ™€๏ธ

One of the greatest, controversial and charismatic tennis players of all time will be in The Sporting Club house on the eve of Wimbledon 2026.
JOHN MCENROE is not only one of the most famous tennis players in sporting history but he has been now for many years the most popular tennis pundit and commentator on worldwide TV.

A seven time Grand Slam singles champion - three times Wimbledon and four times the US Open - with 77 singles titles to his name and ranked world number one for 170 weeks, he has also won five Wimbledon titles in the men's doubles, with four more at the US open, 77 doubles titles also and the only man in history to simultaneously be ranked number one in the world in both singles and doubles. He also won the mixed doubles at the French Open and the Davis Cup five times.
In a golden era that saw him pit his wits against Bjorn Borg, Jimmy Connors, Ivan Lendl, Boris Becker, Mats Wilander and many more Grand Slam winners, John played and beat them all.

His hi-octane on-court behaviour frequently landed him in trouble with umpires and tennis authorities which made him even more watchable as a sportsman and, as he mellowed and grew older, so his popularity rose more.
We are SO excited to be hosting John on June 26th at this not to be missed occasion and guarantee an unmisable afternoon including drinks reception, table photos with John, a three course lunch and a cracking, edge of your seat in depth chat with the superstar.

An event like this is one of the many reasons why it's cool to be a member of The Sporting Club.

What a lovely lunch we all had today with the wonderful Dame Laura Kenny at Le Pont de la Tour with the stunning backdrop of Tower Bridge.

The Sporting Club arranged this for club member Kelvin Trott and Alexander Charles, the second of a series of intimate lunches bringing top clients together to meet and be entertained by a top sports star.

The returns on the day are well worth it.

Laura was her usual bubbly self, full of beans with lots of stories to tell about how she became Britain's greatest female Olympian, and with good food, drink and company to boot, it proved to be a special day.

If you are interested in staging similar events - very intimate occasions featuring sports stars - then message us.

It's all part of the service!
