Alex T Posted August 27, 2009 Report Share Posted August 27, 2009 Right now ive finally recieved a copy of the sponsorship letter back - ive been asked to find some companies/ businesses to appraoch for sponsorship. Any ideas? We are after a financial sponsorship for a local Judo club. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
valkyries Posted August 27, 2009 Report Share Posted August 27, 2009 can we not give you personal sponsors or is it just businesses you need ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex T Posted August 27, 2009 Author Report Share Posted August 27, 2009 Were looking at around 6,000 of sponsorship for a new uniform and the travel expenses for next years International Competion in Holland - hence the business route! Thanks for the thought! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Val (Zebedee) Posted August 28, 2009 Report Share Posted August 28, 2009 Do you have any sports shops near you? Ask for the head office address & write to them explaining what you're doing. Alternatively, ask them for a donation of sporting goods & arrange a raffle night & raise some funds that way (as an alternative if you have no luck with sponsorship).

Alex T Posted August 28, 2009 Author Report Share Posted August 28, 2009 Lottery wont give us anything, we tried last year! Council gave us 250 last year! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chezell Posted August 28, 2009 Report Share Posted August 28, 2009 That's a shame, I found this link but I think it is lottery http://www.awardsforall.org.uk/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex T Posted August 28, 2009 Author Report Share Posted August 28, 2009 Rep added great link! Just checked it and they will only recognise Judo's BJA (British Judo Association) and not the AJA (Amateur Judo Association) which the club is part of - sure this was the reason they refused us last time!

siberian_wolf Posted August 29, 2009 Report Share Posted August 29, 2009 hmmm would it have to be a sports company? We run a training school so can have word with Jamie if you like but not sure if we could reach the full 6,000 though. Have you approached the fitness clubs and gyms? Maybe they could help you out. have you thought of making a listing here - http://www.uksponsorship.com/judo.htm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
