Paul Casbolt and Karl Kinsey of Yes Glazing Solutions
celebrated well into the night at this year’s FIT Show
Gala Dinner - after they were declared winners of the
Master Fitter Challenge, in association with FENSA.
Walking away with a
cash prize of £5,000,
both Paul and Karl
proved that they were
indeed masters of their
craft.
Being recognised by their
peers as the best of the best
as far as the chosen finalists
go obviously meant a lot to
the boys from Yes Glazing as
when they were announced
as the competition winners,
following some jubilant
hugs, tears of joy were
evident as they took to the
stage to collect their award
and cheque.
Runners-up were Steve
Price and Terry Griffin of
Conwy Windows who took
home a cheque for £3,000
while last year’s winner, Arron Clegg of Eco-Sash, along

of live installation tasks
throughout the first two days
of the FIT Show at the International Centre in Telford
alongside eight other finalists, event assessors GQA
Qualifications, deemed Paul
and Karl should be crowned
‘Master Fitter’ for 2014.
Besides splitting the winnings, Paul and Karl will
now also be able to sport the
Master Fitter Challenge Winner logo on everything they

the company showroom and
on all company literature.
Congratulations to them
and to all of the finalists.

Business Micros Redeem
Themselves At FIT Show
2014 Football Tournament
While the question was shirts or
skins when four football teams from
the industry gathered at Telford United’s New Bucks Head stadium for the
FIT Show football tournament, public
decency won as everyone chose
shirts.
Four teams, two playing with a man short,
came together on June 9th - the night before the FIT Show - to entertain the watch-
ing public at Telford’s Goalzone centre with
six keenly contested and often tasty games.
Business Micros, remembering their thrashing at the hands of GQAs Rest of the World
team in 2013, were eventually proclaimed
the winners.
Jim Cronie (Business Micros) and Simon
Smith (GQA PM Training) were nominated
as top goalkeepers.
With GQA, GT Windows, Vita Cellular
Foams, Business Micros and Haffner all
fielding players, thanks also needs to be
given to the timekeepers who did exactly
that without stepping onto the hallowed 3G
turf.
With one eye on April 2016 for the next
FIT football tournament, keep your other
eye on this space as Mick, Carl and Will
discuss the potential for a FIT Show friendly
in 2015.
