On Friday the 17th March, we saw Elite make its’ inaugural appearance at the East of Scotland Business fives in Sighthill Edinburgh.

The team gave an excellent account of themselves – despite team captain Henry playing on with a fractured finger! – reaching the quarter finals before losing in a tight game 2-1 to Avaloq.

THANK YOU!

Last week saw us honour a very important man and colleague as he reached a golden milestone beginning what we are sure will be a long and very happy retirement!

As Elite fast approaches its’ own 30th anniversary year, we all said an emotional and heartfelt farewell to our much-loved Operations Director Brian Sneddon. Brian has been with us for 21 of those 30 years and during his time at Elite, as Account Manager, Sales Operations Manager, General Manager and latterly Operations Director, he has made a huge contribution to our team in so many ways.

We all wish both Brian and, his very understanding wife Margaret, an amazing, long and very healthy retirement.
