Last night, Hickory’s Smokehouse in Horbury was buzzing as seven determined teams went head-to-head for the ultimate prize – the WAWHQ Trophy. The questions were tough, the competition fierce, and the smokehouse buffet? Absolutely legendary. Because nothing says “quiz night” like brisket and ribs!
Champions Hold Their Crown
Our reigning champions – the unstoppable combination of Juice Personnel and Solupak – proved once again that they’re the team to beat. They defended their title with confidence and cleverness. Who’s going to topple them next time? The gauntlet has been thrown down!
The Host Who Kept Us Laughing
A huge thank you to our loyal supporter Cllr Darren Byford, who steered the evening with charm and plenty of fun interactions. His quick wit and engaging style kept everyone entertained from start to finish.
Food, Fun & Fabulous Names
The smokehouse buffet was a hit and plates were piled high. But let’s talk about creativity… because Best Team Name went to the brilliant Quiztina Aguilera, featuring stars from Travel Counsellor’s Charlotte Hall, Prosperity Wealth, Face2Face HR, and Rachel Riding – Your Sales Sorted. Absolute gold!
The Contenders
- Concept Recruitment put in a strong performance – definitely ones to watch next time.
- The We Are Wakefield crew, joined by McManus Consulting and DAK Training, might need a little more revision before the next showdown (we believe in you!).
- The Good Vibe Tribe ladies brought energy and laughter, sparking plenty of playful conversation with our host.
- Mint HR, Judy Parsons – LinkedIn Lady, Purple Pebble People, and Wakefield Hospice even snagged a round win – nice work!
- And let’s not forget Switalski’s, who bravely battled and walked away with the coveted Loser’s Lambrini. Wear that title with pride!
A Night to Remember
It was an evening full of laughs, great food, and even greater company – all in support of the incredible Wakefield Hospice. Thank you to everyone who joined us and made it such a success.
Until Next Time…
Who will rise to the challenge and dethrone the unstoppable Juice Personnel + Solupak team? Watch out for the next We Are Wakefield Hospice Quiz Night in 2026 – you won’t want to miss it!
