For local businesses
Sponsorship
A pitch board, one age group's kit or the whole club's balls for a season. Every pound goes on the boys, and the accounts are open.
Kit, referees, league fees and pitch hire are what the money goes on, and we can show you the figures. A local firm that wants its name in front of several hundred local parents every Saturday can do that for less than a small newspaper advert.
Your options are on the sponsors page. We keep them simple and we do not sell the same thing twice: one sponsor per age group, on a shirt that lasts two seasons. We will not take sponsorship from gambling firms, vape shops or alcohol brands on children's shirts.
We put sponsors on the website, in the Saturday messages and on the boards by the tea hut. If you want to do more, such as sending your staff down for a morning on the barbecue, please do.
What is included
- Your name on the shirts, or a board, or the match balls
- A line on this website and the team messages
- An invoice, and a thank you from the boys' parents
- First refusal the next season
- Open accounts on request
What it costs
From £40 for a season of match balls. Team kit £450. Work out your family's cost on the subs calculator, and see this week's game on the Saturday page.
Questions about sponsorship
Is it tax deductible?
Sponsorship with advertising in return is usually an ordinary business expense. Ask your accountant; we are a football club.
What if we only want one team?
That is the usual way. Parents often know the firm, and they use it.
Two training sessions free. Then he can tell you.
Wednesday evenings at Trethomas Park, grouped by age. Bring boots or trainers, shin pads if you have them, and a coat for yourself. Ask for the coach of his age group at the car park gate.
