The Oratory Prep School is delighted to announce a new partnership with Henley Hawks, becoming the Main Sponsor of the club’s thriving Mini & Junior section.
The agreement, which runs until the end of the 2027/28 season, will see The Oratory Prep School logo feature on the front of the new Mini & Junior playing shirts. More importantly, it marks the beginning of a partnership built on shared values and a commitment to supporting young people within our local community.
Sport has long been an important part of life at The Oratory Prep School. Alongside developing physical skills, we believe sport helps children build confidence, resilience, teamwork and character. These qualities remain with them long after the final whistle has blown.
Henley Hawks has earned an excellent reputation for providing young players with high-quality coaching and opportunities to develop their skills in a positive and supportive environment. The club plays a vital role within the local community, bringing families together and fostering a lifelong love of sport.
Commenting on the partnership, incoming Headmaster Mr Will May said:
“We believe sport plays a vital role in helping children grow in confidence, character and resilience. Henley Hawks has an outstanding reputation for developing young players and fostering a strong sense of community, making this a natural partnership. We are proud to support the next generation of rugby players in the local area.”
Henley Rugby Club Chairman Chris Nixon welcomed the partnership, saying:
“We are thrilled to welcome The Oratory Prep School into our family of Elite Sponsors and we’re incredibly grateful for their support. Like us, they have a very proud history and we’re excited about building on our existing partnership over the next two seasons and beyond.”
The Oratory Prep School already enjoys strong links with many local sports clubs and organisations, helping pupils access opportunities both within and beyond the school environment. This new partnership with Henley Hawks strengthens those connections and reflects our ongoing commitment to supporting young people across the region.
We look forward to working closely with Henley Hawks over the coming seasons and wish all Mini & Junior players every success for the year ahead.
