Ranmore Fund Management, an independently-owned global equity investment firm, has announced its sponsorship of the England Hockey League Premier Division Finals.

The finals, which will take place this weekend (Saturday 2nd – Sunday 3rd May) at Surbiton Hockey Club, will see the top four women's and open/men's teams compete for national honours.

On Ranmore’s sponsorship of one of the standout events in the domestic hockey calendar, the CEO of England Hockey, Rich Beer said: “Ranmore sponsors the 2026 England Hockey League Premier Division Finals. We are excited to welcome Ranmore Fund Management as our presenting partner for the EHL Premier Division Finals 2026. Their dedication to excellence, coupled with a strong belief in the positive impact of sport on individuals and communities, aligns perfectly with England Hockey's values.

“This partnership will undoubtedly help us elevate the Finals experience for players and fans alike, showcasing the very best of English club hockey."

Ranmore’s sponsorship will not only support the delivery of the finals but also champion ‘the positive role sport can play in building confidence, teamwork, discipline, and opportunity’.

This initiative echoes the work of Helpmore, Ranmore’s charitable foundation, a UK-registered charity and a registered non-profit company in South Africa (Helpmore SA) which was set up by Ranmore’s founder, Sean Peche.

On their sponsorship of the finals, the Ranmore founder and trustee of Helpmore and Helpmore SA Sean Peche, said,#: "We are delighted to sponsor the EHL Premier Division Finals 2026 and support one of the standout weekends in the domestic hockey calendar.”

“The finals bring together the top men’s and women’s teams competing at the highest level of the domestic game. Success in any elite environment requires discipline, resilience, teamwork and a commitment to continual improvement.”

“Sport can bring tremendous benefits to participants and local communities. Alongside the finals, I’m pleased that Helpmore supports 11 different grassroots sports and initiatives that make a meaningful difference across the UK and South Africa.”

The ‘showpiece conclusion to England’s elite domestic club hockey season’ will be played at Surbiton Hockey Club over the bank holiday weekend, with supporters from across England’s hockey community expected to descend on the capital.
