Adwalton Angels Women’s Cricket Team
Adwalton Angels Women’s Cricket team offers sponsors a unique opportunity to fuel a phenomenal success story and make a tangible impact on West Yorkshire’s growing cricket scene. Formed in the summer of 2025 with only one player having prior experience, the Angels have rapidly become a force, currently standing unbeaten and leading the Bradford Indoor Softball League.
This initial success, driven by 26 new-to-cricket women ranging in age from 12 to 50s, many of whom are joining a sports team for the very first time demonstrates exceptional commitment and community appeal. Crucially, securing sponsorship will be the catalyst for the Angels to achieve their next major goal: establishing a Women’s Hardball Team in Summer 2026. Your investment would not just support a winning team, but would directly accelerate the progression of this inclusive, inspiring group, solidifying their permanent place and influence within West Yorkshire cricket.
Target Audience
The Adwalton Angels Women’s Cricket team, and by extension the Adwalton Cricket Club, appeals to an exceptionally broad and highly engaged demographic. The property’s fan base and membership span an impressive age range from 5 years old (Junior teams/All-Stars) up to 85 years old (regular spectators and bar clientele). Specifically, the Angels team itself encompasses women from 12 to 50s. This entire group consists of highly social, loyal, and sports loving individuals who are deeply committed to their local community. Economically, the demographic is diverse but has a strong affinity for practical services; the significant presence of members who work in or require trades makes the club an ideal location for partners seeking to engage with this specific consumer group. The club represents a true local West Yorkshire family demographic.
Key Dates and Timings
Sponsorship would be most beneficial for the upcoming Summer Season to start in April 2026 through until September 2026. We also enter a winter league from September- February in which we are currently participating. Sponsorship could broaden our opportunities all year round and help us to maintain the team throughout the year.
Specific Opportunity Details
The Adwalton Angels Women’s Cricket team offers a high impact, community focused sponsorship opportunity centred in Drighlington, Leeds/Bradford, West Yorkshire. The primary goal for a potential partner is to fund the transition to a Women’s Hardball Team in the Summer of 2026, directly supporting a diverse group of 26+ enthusiastic women (ages 12 to 50s) who are new to the sport.
Your investment would not just support this successful, unbeaten team (drawing 30-40 spectators per indoor game), but would align your brand with the entire volunteer-run Adwalton Cricket Club, which includes three Senior Men’s teams, three Junior teams, an All-Stars section, and three Rounders teams. This extensive footprint gives a sponsor massive reach, evidenced by the club’s 1.4k Facebook followers and a minimum of 3,000 views per post in the local area.
Partnership benefits could include- kit branding on the women’s team merchandise, visual display at the club ground, a free club membership, and an invitation to a special Sponsors Day event, providing meaningful engagement with a wide and growing community dependant on sponsorship.
