]]>Ahead of the Rugby World Cup 2011, DHL and local youngsters received a few tips from England star, Mark Cueto
With just over a month to go until the big kick-off of Rugby World Cup 2011, preparations are well under way for England’s first game against Argentina on September 10th.
As the tournament’s Official Logistics Partner, DHL will be heading to New Zealand in top form, ensuring transportation of all 19 teams and key equipment throughout the competition.
That said, it’s never to late to learn a few new tricks from the experts, so we invited Sale Sharks and England winger, Mark Cueto, to visit us at our East Midlands Airport hub and give us a few tips.
England star Cueto, an ambassador for DHL in the lead-up to World Cup 2011, visited our hub last week to meet a group of lucky local youngsters.
The day represented a fantastic culmination of DHL preparations ahead of the England team’s departure for New Zealand, with local children excited to meet their hero. “I couldn’t believe I got to meet Mark. He’s an amazing player! I was so excited – I can’t wait to tell my friends and show them my autographed rugby ball,” said 15-year-old, Max Adams.
The England winger tackled a Q&A grilling from the children – aged between four and 15 – before taking part in an autograph session.
“The kids were extremely knowledgeable about rugby and weren’t afraid to ask me some really tricky questions! It’s great to see young people so enthusiastic about the game. Hopefully, if they continue to work hard, we’ll see some Rugby World Cup stars of the future,” Cueto commented.
In our role as Official Logistics Partner, we’ll deliver over 100 tonnes of equipment, with our fleet covering around 30,000km, in the lead up and during the tournament. What’s more, fans can trust their tickets are in safe hands: from the opening match to the final, we’ll distribute 1.6 millions tickets to fans worldwide.
Phil Couchman, CEO of DHL Express UK & Ireland, commented: “We’re delighted to have been able to offer local children the opportunity to meet their hero. The children were thrilled to meet Mark, and interested to find how DHL will be delivering rugby to the world.”
