Celebrating Historic Milestone at Glasgow Warriors Awards Dinner

The atmosphere was electric at the annual Glasgow Warriors Awards Dinner, held at the Glasgow Hilton.

It was a night dedicated to celebrating the grit, talent, and community spirit of Scottish rugby. For HF Group, this year’s ceremony was particularly significant, marking a historic “first” in our enduring partnership with the club and our ongoing commitment to the city of Glasgow.

Supporting a New Era: The Inaugural Women’s Try of the Season

As a proud shirt-sleeve sponsor of the first-ever Glasgow Warriors Women’s team, we were absolutely thrilled to present the inaugural HF Group Try of the Season award. The honour went to the incredibly talented Freya Walker, whose performance this season has been nothing short of inspirational.

Being the first sponsor to ever present this specific award is a milestone we hold dear. It reflects our belief in equality in sport and our desire to support the trail blazers who are carving out a new legacy at Scotstoun Stadium.

A Multi-Faceted Partnership Rooted in Glasgow

HF Group’s relationship with the Glasgow Warriors is built on a foundation of shared values and professional excellence. As a leading provider of electrical, mechanical, and fire & security services, we provide a variety of essential group services that keep the club running behind the scenes.

Our presence is felt throughout the club at every level. We have had a long-standing support as a high-visibility pitch-side sponsor. And with the Women’s Team, we are helping to invest in the future of the game as an official sleeve sponsor.

Our partnership extends beyond the rugby pitch. With past local projects including a local Victoria Park clean-up, ensuring the green spaces in Glasgow’s West End remain vibrant for local residents.

Driving Social Value and Community Impact

At HF, we are deeply rooted in the communities we serve. We don’t view sponsorship as a mere branding exercise; rather, it is a core component of our Social Value & Community Impact strategy. We strive to create positive change through a four-pillar approach:

1. Community Engagement & Partnerships

By supporting local projects and fostering community partnerships, we ensure that our success as a Glasgow-based business is shared with those around us. This includes everything from grassroots sports sponsorship to local environmental initiatives.

2. Charitable Initiatives

Our team is dedicated to giving back. Through fundraising, charity partnerships, and company-supported causes, we aim to provide a safety net for those in need within our regional hubs.

3. Local Economic Contribution

We believe in the power of the “local pound.” By supporting local businesses and focusing on regional employment, we help bolster the Scottish economy and provide high-quality career opportunities for the next generation of engineers and technicians.

4. Volunteering and Skills-Based Support

Our staff are our greatest asset. Through staff volunteer initiatives and skills-based volunteering, we lend our professional expertise to local organisations, helping them improve their facilities and safety standards.

Looking to the Future

The 2026 Awards Ceremony was a night to remember, but for us, it is just the beginning. With more exciting community opportunities currently in the works, we are committed to deepening our ties with the Glasgow Warriors and the people of this city.

As we look forward to the next season, our focus remains clear: delivering excellence in our professional services while championing the local heroes like Freya Walker who make Glasgow a world-class place to live and work.

Congratulations once again to all the winners at the Glasgow Warriors Awards Dinner!
