Thursday 16th April

Hi *|FIRSTNAME|*,

Well they only went and DID IT! And with 2 games to spare!

We're proud to tell you that HARBOROUGH TOWN FOOTBALL CLUB (HTFC) stormed to victory with a 3-1 win over Halesowen Town last Saturday to secure being CHAMPIONS of the Southern League Premier Division Central 2025/26 and with it promotion of course. 

Remarkably, this is the club's third promotion in five seasons, and all under the management of Mitch Austin. HUGE congratulations to players, management and everyone involved at the club from us, and we wish the same continued success in The National League North next season.

The team are playing their final home game this coming Saturday 18th April 3pm at the Beehive ground, and you really should be there if you can to join in the celebrations with the home fans. The atmosphere will be amazing!

There's been a lot of sporting events to enjoy recently, and have you noticed an increase in the number of road runners lately? I assume they're inspired (or competing) in the LONDON MARATHON, the next big event to take place on Sunday 26th April. Having competed twice myself (in my youth!), I know the hard work that goes into the training, so if you are running this year, I wish you every success and that above all else you enjoy the day. 

Closer to home, find out WHY DUNCAN MURRAY WINES is celebrating MALBEC WORLD DAY tomorrow (Friday). In fact you can find out all upcoming events at DMWs including Wunderbar (pop up winebar) opening times tomorrow, this Saturday's FREE Tasting and more by opening their latest newsletter here.
  
As usual, you can scroll down the page to see this week's selection of great local offers from some of the best recommended independent businesses in Market Harborough and then find loads of upcoming events in and around the town, blog articles, and business features, all brought to you by thebestof Market Harborough, your community hub for thebestof everything local.

Have an amazing week!

Simon

Adams & Jones Estate Agents

Adams & Jones is a highly respected family owned Estate Agents and Letting Agency in Market Harborough and Lutterworth and is the exclusive accredited member of The Guild of Property Professionals in the local area.


Genuinely can not recommend Adam & Jones more. They go well above and beyond with their services not only to their clients but also those involved. Zoe and Becki are thoroughly amazing, with a dedication that is rarely seen today. The level of communication, chasing all external parties and pushing for a completion out stripes any other rivals and puts them all to shame. Adam & Jones will be my only choice going forward and it should be yours too. Thank you all again for everything, Robert
