QPR OFFICIAL SITE -COMMUNITY PRAISE
QPR have been nominated for the Community Club of the Year accolade at the Football League Awards.
Rangers, along with Brighton & Hove Albion, Colchester United, Millwall, Norwich City and West Bromwich Albion will go head to head at the Grosvenor House Hotel on Sunday 4th March to determine the winner.
Community Scheme Manager Andy Evans said: "We think that the Communities that we work in across the five Boroughs are made up of individuals. What makes a community are those individuals within it.
"We focus on people within the programme and the work that we do has a direct impact on those individuals who must feel that their life opportunities have improved as a result of their interaction with QPR in the Community.
"The QPR in the Community Scheme is now operating at a greatly enhanced level of provision and is making a very substantial contribution to the people of the West London Community. The range of activities is extremely diverse.
"Because of our highly adaptable working practices and ambition, we have been able to respond to emerging opportunities and experience growth. As a result, there has been a rising in the standards of provision and these improvements are evident in areas such as increased staff expertise, particularly in work with young people at risk.
"The overall impact of the programme to the quality of life of an immense number of people each year should not be undervalued. A good vibrant scheme has a positive effect on the quality of life experienced by residents of our local community - who are the long term future of our club.
"There is an admirably strong degree of loyalty to the football club among the scheme's staff. Success has only been possible with dynamic, inspirational and hard working staff."
"It is important to recognise that communities are made up of individuals - people. Time and investment of skills in people, that is what will make stronger, sustainable communities. Through all our programmes that is our aim."
Over 130 industry entries were received across all three divisions and twenty five clubs have been short listed for this year's Awards. The winners will be announced at the second annual Football League Awards which will take place at London's Grosvenor House on Sunday 4th March 2007.
Expert judging panels were assembled for each category and the process of evaluating each entry took place at The Football League's headquarters on 18th and 19th January.
Stewart Thomson, Commercial Director of The Football League said: "The Football League Awards incorporating FourFourTwo's Top 50 Players aim to champion achievements off the pitch as well as on it. The quality of the entries is testament to the innovative community, marketing and sponsorship programmes that clubs throughout The League are undertaking in order to maintain their places at the heart of the community."
The inaugural event was televised on Sky Sports 1, further information regarding this year's TV schedule will follow. QPR
QPR OFFICIAL SITE - PROGRAMME HONOURED
The QPR matchday programme has been named as one of seven finalists in the Football League Awards' Best Matchday Programme category.
'Hoops' along with programmes from Cardiff City, Colchester United, Crystal Palace, Hull City, Plymouth Argyle and Stockport County will battle it out at the Grosvenor House Hotel on March 4 for the honour to claim the Best Matchday Programme title.
The Football League Awards, incorporating the FourFourTwo Top 50 Football League Players, is an annual gala event which recognises all that contribute to exceptional achievements both on and off the field.
Press and Publications Manager Jackie Bass said: "It's heartening to know that in today's world of website and SMS technology, that the Football League still host tribute the time honoured tradition of the matchday programme.
"Myself and my colleague Ian Taylor are immensely proud of the fact that we have been nominated and we believe this is a testament to the hard work that is put in to the programme week in, week out, not just by us, but also by Dunwoody Publishing and all of our contributors.
"We have seen a host of impressive programmes up and down the country on our travels this season and are proud to be considered one of the best.
"The size of our department coupled with our daily workload also makes us rightly proud of being in the top seven of the 72 clubs that the awards were open to.
"We look forward to making the programme even better next year and hopefully the result on March 4 will be a favourable one."
Over 130 industry entries were received across all three divisions and twenty five clubs have been shortlisted for this year's Awards. The winners will be announced at the second annual Football League Awards which will take place at London's Grosvenor House on Sunday 4th March 2007.
Expert judging panels were assembled for each category and the process of evaluating each entry took place at The Football League's headquarters on 18th and 19th January.
