Upton ARLFC Girls section are looking for sponsorship to support their newly formed team as they currently rely on fundraising.
Upton ARLFC girls’ section is a newly formed Rugby League side which started in September 2023. We have had fantastic numbers of local girls already join the teams and are open to all girls aged 12 – 16yrs.
There are however many expenses connected with running the club and we rely for funding solely on our own fundraising events and the support of local businesses. The major expense for the teams is training kits and hoodies and a full Match Day kit. We were hoping that this might be something you would consider helping us with.
In return for your sponsorship, we would of course be willing to wear your company’s logo on our club training shirts, hoodies and match kits also for you to be listed as a sponsor on all our club literature and social media sites including Instagram, Facebook and TikTok. There may also be the opportunity for other promotions – when we plan our annual fundraiser in the summer.
We do hope that this is something you might be willing to consider. Thank you for giving this your consideration.
Best Regards
Gemma Hirst
Team Manager
Target Audience
The age is girls 12yrs to 16yrs and as the section grows we are hoping to extend and see the girls through to open age leagues.
Key Dates and Timings
The sponsorship would be for the 2024 season and would be for both training and match kits throughout.
Specific Opportunity Details
We are a brand new girls section starting in a well established rugby league club. We are hoping to grow and support girls from the age of 12 yrs through to open age. We started in Sept 2023 and have already secured enough numbers to enter a under 15s in the 2024 season. We have set up Facebook, Instagram and TikTok and the section is growing in numbers. Girls and women in rugby league is at turning point with super league clubs now offering professional contracts and the game is growing at a significant rate. In 2023 Wembley hosted their first ever women's final and this is massive step forward in recognition for the women's game.
Features and Benefits
The company logistics would take pride of place on the match day kits a position on the training kits. We would advertise on socials and all promotional materials for the girls section. We would be happy to share photos and videos for promotional use. We would supply team photos and a display kit. We would promote the main sponsor during our annual fundraiser event in the 2024 season.
Other Partners
We have secured a few local businesses for small logo placement on the training kit only, who are families of the current players as follows:
1 shirt front - CA-KE
2 shirt back -
3 shirt sleeve - kippax Park fisheries
4 shirt sleeve - bechamel Market Kitchen
1 front hoodie - RPJ logistics
2 back hoodie -

Investment
We would be looking for £1500 for the main match kit sponsorship and £500 for the training kit and equipment. There maybe other opportunities arrise during the season for updating equipment and for entry to cups/leagues and tournaments
