The Show Us Your Team Pride campaign, which runs until 4 August, invites grassroots teams of all sizes and age groups to showcase their spirit by posting a photo or video on social media. Entries must tag @howdeninsurancelocaluk, use the hashtag #ShowUsYourTeamPride, and include three tagged team members to qualify.
Winners will receive 30 full Canterbury rugby kits, including shirts, shorts and socks — giving clubs a chance to start the new season looking and feeling like champions.
Craig Warburton, Branch Manager at Howden Maidenhead, said:
“Rugby is more than just a game – it’s a community. Through this competition, we want to celebrate the incredible network of grassroots rugby clubs we’re so lucky to have across the UK. These clubs are the heart of the sport, nurturing talent, teamwork, and a love for the game from the ground up.”
The initiative is part of Howden Insurance’s wider commitment to supporting rugby communities, underpinned by its role as a Principal Partner of The British & Irish Lions. In addition to the kit giveaway, Howden branches are running community boot exchanges and honouring Lions Origin clubs — those that have helped shape the careers of past and present Lions players — with commemorative plaques.
Founded 30 years ago, Howden Insurance has grown into one of the UK’s largest independent brokers, with over 200 branches nationwide. The company says its mission is to use insurance as a “force for good,” supporting both clients and the communities it serves.
