As we reflect on this year’s Wigtownshire RFC Senior Annual Awards Dinner, we would like to congratulate all of our award winners and take a moment to thank everyone who helped make the evening such a tremendous success.
Firstly, our sincere thanks to Jimmy Tennant for saying grace and setting the tone for a wonderful evening.
Thank you to David Watson for doing an excellent job as our Master of Ceremonies. Your professionalism, humour and ability to keep the evening flowing smoothly were greatly appreciated.
A huge thank you goes to Lisa and the bar staff for their hard work throughout the night, ensuring everyone was well looked after.
Our gratitude also goes to Sally Hair and her catering team for providing such an excellent meal and service. Your efforts behind the scenes did not go unnoticed.
Thank you to the WRFC Committee for all the planning, organisation and countless hours of work that go into making events such as this possible. The continued success of our club is built on the dedication of volunteers like yourselves.
We were delighted to welcome our guests from Newton Stewart RFC, Stewartry RFC and Larne RFC. Thank you for joining us and for your continued friendship and support of Wigtownshire RFC.
Special thanks must also go to our guest speakers, Robin "Bomber" Hislop and Bruce Aitchison. Your stories, humour and insight entertained us all and added greatly to the occasion.
Thank you to Candice Docherty for her excellent work managing our social media. Your efforts helped highlight and celebrate the evening and allowed others to share in the occasion.
We would also like to recognise Stewart Hoad for his incredibly generous winning bid of £2,250 in our ball auction, with proceeds supporting the Stranraer Cancer Drop In Centre. This remarkable contribution will make a real difference to an organisation that provides invaluable support within our community.
Finally, thank you to everyone who attended. Whether you are a player, coach, volunteer, sponsor, supporter or guest, your contribution to our club is greatly valued. Wigtownshire RFC is more than just a rugby club—it is a community, and evenings like this remind us of the strength of that community.
Congratulations once again to all of our award winners. Your commitment, dedication and contribution to Wigtownshire RFC throughout the season are thoroughly deserved and worthy of recognition. We look forward to celebrating many more successes together in the seasons ahead.
Thank you all for helping make this another memorable evening. 🏆
