LURUFC is the associated rugby club of the university of leeds. We have a large club with 5 separate teams all of which compete in different BUCS rugby leagues with our first XV playing in BUCS national 1. As a sponsor of the club your brand will appear on the front of the 1st team shirt for the upcoming season and you will receive significant social media marketing on our Facebook and Instagram pages..
Target Audience
Our main demographic is undergraduate and postgraduate students of all genders
Key Dates and Timings
The sponsorship will begin in September with the release of our new kit for the upcoming season and will last for the next 5 seasons/years (with the kit beginning with the first team and being passed down eventually reaching the 5th team) giving your brand 5 years of exposure within the university.
Specific Opportunity Details
The club is closely associated with the leeds university union and hence has a very strong student presence and often attracts the largest crowds out of any sports club at the university. Our Facebook page has around 1,500 members, our Twitter page has 2,000 followers and our Instagram page has 6,400 followers consisting of both current students and alumni.
Features and Benefits
As our primary sponsor your logos/branding would feature front and centre on our first XV kit for the upcoming BUCS campaign. Along with our official kit release this means your branding would be present at the front of every team sheet released that year, giving you consistent social media exposure. Furthermore, in the build up to leeds varsity (which is televised and played at headingley stadium) your branding would always feature in promotions for the event. We are also happy to facilitate any other more specific requests from sponsors.
