SPONSORSHIP OPPORTUNITIES
SPONSORSHIP OPPORTUNITIES
The Capital City Cup offers an excellent opportunity to capitalize on the growing soccer interest in the Midlands. The tournament is especially suited for businesses and organizations that operate throughout Lexington and Richland Counties. Sponsorship not only demonstrates local support and involvement to participants from this area but also provides impressions for visitors from outside the sponsor's marketing locations.
The direct audience includes approximately 300 high school boys soccer players, 100 officials including coaches, referees and tourney volunteers and at least 1,000 parents, plus siblings and other relatives and friends. Also, we anticipate a ticket-gate crowd of 5,000 spectators over the four-day event.
The indirect audience includes readers of tournament publicity in area and community newspapers; soccer coaches and administrators who see the tournament’s calendar listing and other promotional material in soccer publications; and parents and others who do not accompany their family’s player, but who see the tournament website and other materials both before and after the event.
Sponsorship Categories
Title Sponsor - $5,000 AND UP
Benefits:
General Sponsor - $2,500 OR MORE - Some or all of which can be offset by suitable contributions-in-kind.
General sponsors will be visibly identified but not as part of the Tournament name.
