Last updated : 03 June 2011 By Covsupport News Service

Coventry City have rewarded for the hard work that goes into their Match Day Hospitality.

The club won the Championship Match Day Hospitality Experience Award 2011 and Head Chef Tom Harris and his team won the Chef Team Of The Year at the seventh Football Hospitality Awards at the Molineux in Wolverhampton.

City’s CEO Paul Clouting told the club website: "This is the first time we have won the Matchday Hospitality Experience Award and we are all thrilled. 

"Judges came along to our match against Watford on April 2 and looked at every aspect from the moment guests arrive in the atrium and the standard of food served to the view from their seats in the stadium to post-match activities.

 “We put a great deal of thought into our hospitality packages and we pride ourselves on providing a Premier League standard of service.

"The hospitality experience is underpinned by the food and choice served by our catering team in all the hospitality lounges.

"We have beaten competition from our Midlands rivals including Leicester City and Derby County and it is fantastic for the Ricoh Arena to be recognised in this manner.

"It is another great achievement for both the club and the Ricoh Arena and the best possible way for the behind-the-scenes staff to finish the 2010/11 campaign.”
