Tournament founder and Business Fives managing director John McClarey – who also organised a highly-successful inaugural Business Fours golf tournament earlier this year – says “the events have proven to be a very big hit with the Glasgow Professional Services sector and allows a wide range of job roles to come together on the football pitch and down tools for the afternoon.  We’ve been really impressed at the charitable efforts from the city of Glasgow that has lived up to its reputation of having communities at the heart of their work.  Given the mix of companies we’ve had involved it promises to be another good networking opportunity for the industry.”
