Testimonials
Kingswood School, Bath have now used O’Neills for five consecutive overseas school’s tours and have been very impressed.
Director of Sport, Tim Reeman, states how important customer service is: “The sales office in Somerset is a massive help to me! Tess and Lynn really do provide the support I need in getting things spot on. You cannot make mistakes with tour kits – they are a one-off.”
Tim’s most recent tour to North America involved 80 students and 10 staff. O’Neills provided sizing samples and their staff were present at the sizing session. All the kit was in a bespoke design and personalised with initials.
Moulsford Prep School are regular visitors to South Africa and have used O’Neills for their last three trips.
Mark Griffiths, Director of Sport, explained that the kit is always delivered when agreed, is top quality and, most importantly, looks smart. The tour party always stands out for all the right reasons.
Pip Atkinson-Kennedy, Director of Sport at King’s School Bruton, has not only benefited from the quick supply of tour kit, for destinations as varied as Canada, the Far East and Australia, but also O’Neills’ ability to supply bespoke team kit for their very successful girl’s hockey teams
“O’Neills have the ability to supply us with bespoke kit, but also personalise it for specific events like indoor and outdoor national hockey finals, when we have little time between the qualifying tournaments and the finals,” said Pip.
