Advert: Centre Stage Uniforms

Centre Stage Uniforms are to present the winners and runner up at this year's British Open with a traditional reminder of their success.

Centre Stage Uniforms
 

One of the great traditions of the British Open will be maintained once again this year thanks to Centre Stage Uniforms.

Framed pennants

The leading uniform makers will be presenting both the winning band and runner up with framed commemorative pennants at this year’s event at Symphony Hall.

Centre Stage also revived the tradition at the Spring Festival this year and MD Martin Gernon is determined to carry on a wonderful contesting feature.

It’s always an honour to be associated with the British Open and we hope the fantastic pennants we supply will become a key part of the winning band’s memorabilia in years to comeMartin Gernon

Honour

He told 4BR: "It’s always an honour to be associated with the British Open and we hope the fantastic pennants we supply will become a key part of the winning band’s memorabilia in years to come.

It's a tradition that has seen us provide bespoke banners to many winning bands from other contests too, such as the All England Masters International.”

He added: "Whoever wins will receive a wonderful memento of the occasion in addition to the fantastic Gold British Open Shield, so we wish all bands the best of luck."
