Dear Community Business Owner,

 

The Gahanna Lady Lions 12U softball team is looking for local sponsors to support our team. As a NON-PROFIT organization all of our managers, coaches, team parents and board members are volunteers from our community. Unfortunately, travel softball is expensive. This is our first year as a team, and we hope that you, as a community partner, would consider sponsoring our team to help us raise the additional funds needed. Sponsorships and donations help us budget for many expenses throughout the year, including:

 

● Purchasing equipment and uniforms

● Field and facility maintenance

● Helping to keep sports affordable for families and providing opportunities for lower income families

● Paying our local umpires, tournament and league fees

● And other costs associated that allow these young women the opportunity to develop and compete at their very best.

​

Sponsorship Opportunities include (and are not limited to):

 

Single

•$250+: Smaller-sized company logo on the team’s banner. Recognition of your sponsorship for display at your business.

 

Double

• $500+: Larger-sized company logo on the team’s banner. Logo on the team’s website (www.gahannaladylions.org). Recognition of your sponsorship for display at your business.

Logo stickers on helmets (similar to Ohio State “Buckeye” stickers awarded for on-and-off field accomplishments), and a separate, company-only banner on display during all games. Logo and company’s website link on the team’s website (www.gahannaladylions.org). Recognition of your sponsorship for display at your business.

 

All sponsorships include social media posts about your business and email blasts to our families thanking you for your sponsorship. We also accept gift cards and items from your business to be used in fundraising raffles.

 

The Lady Lions are thankful for any level of sponsorship you can provide. Your support for the team is a critical part of helping us fulfill our mission to help these young women develop strong character, self-confidence and receive quality instruction and skill development to prepare each player for the next level. We would love to help promote our Gahanna businesses when playing games around central Ohio! We’ll play at tournaments with 50+ teams, marketing your company to thousands of families from the area.
