Underpinning the game – Stress supports Royston Rugby in 2026

Building lasting foundations is one of our key areas of expertise. Taking this theme further we are proud to announce our sponsorship of Royston Rugby Club for the 2026 season.

Strengthening local partnerships

Supporting a club like this and especially giving young people the chance to get involved in Rugby and spend time in a positive outdoor environment, is something we really value.

Royston Rugby Club’s values of resilience and long-term development closely reflects our own approach to the work we do every day by building confidence and encouraging teamwork both on and off the pitch. This level of expert planning and strategy keeps both Stress and Royston Rugby Club in the game.

The club often quote the key values of the game:

• Teamwork.
• Respect.
• Enjoyment.
• Discipline.
• Sportsmanship.

Stress are delighted to be involved and look forward to seeing Royston Rugby Club grow. Here’s to a great season.

David Kitching explains:

“I and a number of colleagues LOVE rugby. I played it at junior and senior levels and have the scars to prove it. The original STRESS logo was based on a rugby ball simply because I loved the shape and nobody else was using anything like that for their logos. My business partner at the time, Trevor Gregory, was (and is) an even bigger fan than myself. As a prize-winning coach in Hong Kong he managed to link his team with Peter Wheeler’s Leicester Tigers and then went on to become President of Hong Kong Rugby Union for many years and, I believe, is now an honorary Chairman, as he then went on to be President of Asian Rugby. So, yes Rugby is dear to our hearts.”
