Sportfest
2011

See it. Play it. Get Active

British Group was a proud sponsor of this year's first annual Sportfest festival. Held May 12-14, 2011,
in St. John’s, this three-day interactive event organized by Sport NL was the first of its kind in the province, and offered thousands of school-aged children a look at the wide range of sports available here in Newfoundland.

Featuring exciting demos, special celebrity guests and hands-on opportunities, the goal of Sportfest is to encourage participation in all organized sport, while at the same time enabling youth to learn about the many health benefits associated with physical activity.

British Group, was also the official supplier of all printed material and signage for Sportfest, and hosted
the Opening VIP Reception which was held at the Swyler’s Club on Crosbie Road. The company also
donated 80 VIP entry passes to the Boys and Girls Club of St. John's, who thoroughly enjoyed themselves
at the event.
