Title: Sponsorship
Post by: Paddy Knott on September 18, 2010, 08:24:35 PM
Hi,

Im not one of those young lads whose obsessed with sponsorships and all of that rubbish. But just out of interest do you offer sponsorships? for just headwear? if so what do you look for in a player?

Cheers

We sponsor the county players who use them currently (apart from the Warwickshire squad who paid for theirs). We look to gain something for the company in return from the sponsorship in terms of exposure of the products and brand I guess. This in return will hopefully lead to a greater volume of sales :)

Good stuff mate. Do you have many youth players on your books at the moment?

Only one really that we offer free soft goods but he happily purchases his helmet and bats and he realises that they are worth buying ;) hes at Somerset under 15's currently but at 14 and 6ft 3 is a promising talent who we are proud to support. Also have a lad at Somerset under 17's who has alot of the kit as well :)

Beyond that no one has really followed up any applications to fulfil any sponsorship.

The helmets are the only item that we cant offer for free even under sponsorship to anyone below county 1st team level im afraid due to the fact its obviously our front line product....

If you are in a county developemnt squad (under 15/16/17 etc) we could look to offer you a free titanium grill with any model that you purchased and free initials adding to it which is the equivilent to a 25% discount or £35 saving.
