Tips for Success

1

Research local market rates

Sponsorship pricing varies by region. Urban and suburban football programs can typically charge 20–40% more than rural areas. Check what other local teams charge.

2

Start with businesses near your venue

Businesses within 5 miles of your football field or facility are the most likely sponsors. They benefit directly from the foot traffic your team brings.

3

Offer multi-season discounts

A 10–15% discount for season-long or year-long commitments locks in revenue and reduces your fundraising workload. Sponsors get better ROI, too.

4

Include a thank-you package

Send sponsors a framed team photo, a thank-you card signed by players, or a simple impact report at the end of the season. It costs almost nothing but dramatically improves renewal rates.

5

Be professional in your outreach

Use your team's letterhead or email domain. Include a one-page sponsorship deck with photos. Businesses are more likely to sponsor teams that present themselves professionally.
