How do we get a corporation to sponsor us? We are going to be a U-16 boys team this year. We have been playing as a traveling team since we werre 10 years old together. The majority of the team is less forunate. Most of them live at home with their sibblings and mother and have to work to help out the family. This team and playing soccer traveling is the only positive structured fun that these kids will get to have. We have struggled for years and accomplished a lot and won many tournaments including the state tournament where we went on to represent the state of Arkansas in the regional league. We were unable to finish the season because of lack of money. Tournaments are expensive, and driving to them and eating while there and hotel expenses take a toll on the few parents that have been helping over the last several years. It is frustrating going and playing against teams with nice uniforms with sponsors all over them. (Walmart, dial, crayola, nike, addidas, Alltel, gatorade. peps etc...) It is frustrating because our kids are just as good if not better but we are not in a town that supports soccer as much as other sports. We just need someones help to get us through the next 3 years of traveling playing soccer. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.
Thank You
