☆☆☆SPONSORSHIP OPPORTUNITIES☆☆☆
This Season, the Wausau Area Flag Football League - WAFFL would like to implement a new strategy towards supporting the overall longevity of the League.
We have been considering Sponsorship opportunities for awhile now, however, there has been some hesitation due to the reality known that a Flag Football League does not have much to offer in return of a Sponsorship. We had to consider what do we have to offer.
We currently have:
1. Presence in a great community.
2. Exposure to potentially 240 Players.
3. Popular location by our League host.
4. We can Like/Follow on Media Page(s).
5. Affordable entry level sponsorships.
6. Multiple Sponsorship Teirs.
7. Potential Yard Sign Placement.
8. Weekly Sponsor Media Post.
9. Exposure & Support of Local Companies.
10. Confidence with a League of 34 Seasons.
After careful consideration, we have decided to move forward with the request for Sponsorship opportunities to help assist our League with financial support towards opportunities such as maintenance of field care, and other future developments.
All Sponsorship offers & requests will go through a screening process prior to acceptance. This is due to some obvious reasons. For one example, it would be hard for us to help promote another bar, when our hosted location is a bar. With that being said, it would also not be ideal to turn down funds from a business willing to support our League. In response to this, we have created 3 different Sponsorship Teirs for this Season to give everyone an opportunity to support the League.
----------------------------------------
Teir 1: Hometown Huddle
This teir allows any company, or even an individual to support the League at any amount of $1 or more. After an amount is received, 50% of the amount will go towards the League, while the other 50% will goes towards the League Championship Payout Amount, originally a $700 Payout. An example of this would be if an individual player or company wanted to support by paying $20. Then $10 would go towards League funding, and the other $10 would be added to the Championship payout, which then would create the new amount of $710 Total. In this Tier, there would not be any limit to the amount of Sponsorships from Individuals or Companies. This teir would also fill the void for Companies or Individuals that could not make it through the initial screening process. These Sponsorships would then be listed weekly to display all of the Local Hometown Support we have received.
Tier 2: Sideline Showcase
This teir is for accepted weekly sponsors at a Season rate of $100 total. The WAFFL page will "like" and "follow" any media sites from the Sponsor. Each week, all sideline showcase sponsors will have yard signs with company logos set up at the entry/exit of the game field. These sponsors will also have a Sponsor Profile post made displaying specific information about the company. They will also be scheduled to be a Weekly Sponsor which will include a post including the Company name as the sponsor of that week's Tuesday and Wednesday Games. If available, Sponsors may also set up booth areas, or display product of the game week of their sponsorship.
Teir 3: Premier Partner
This Top Teir is reserved for the Playoff and Championship Sponsor at a Season cost of $200 Total. This will also include everything a Teir 2 Sponsor receives which is Media Page recognition, displayed yard signs throughout the Season with Company information listed, Sponsor Profile, Weekly Sponsor Listing, potential for booth areas, etc. But in addition, they will be the Weekly Sponsor of our high profile matchups of two weeks of Playoffs and Championship Game. This also includes Sponsorship mentions for end of Season Championship & Trophy Post.
