Sports Tour Fundraising and Team Sponsorship

Here at Tours 4 Sport we organise first class sports tours and sports travel at affordable prices. It never hurts though, to bring the cost of a sports tour down a little more to ensure that money is not an issue for any team member, as we believe that sports travel should be for everyone, not just the privileged. Fundraising can be a great teambuilding exercise because everyone in your team is working together to raise money for your tour. We have tried and tested a great range of fundraising ideas for sports teams and will help you organise a fundraising plan to ensure that everyone on your team will be able to afford the tour.

You can use the proceeds for whatever you want- extra kit, subsidising certain members, a tour kitty, a free bar the night before you leave.

Some popular fundraising ideas from previous tours:

• Fundraising Scratch Cards
• DVD Race Night at your club
• Fun Casino Night
• Personalised Top Trumps
• Pub Quiz
• Slave Auction
• Auction of Promises
• Sell personalised club clothing
• Yard of Ale night
• Raffle and Tombola
• Games night
• Sports Banquet
• Gentlemen's night/Ladies night
• Tour Kit sponsorship
• Bag Packing at the local supermarket

Another great way of fundraising is shopping online. Using www.buy.at you can shop at over 300 online stores and earn cashback on the things you'd buy everyday. If you're doing the christmas shopping or you want to buy car insurance or anything else online then set up an account, link to it from your club website or just send the link to parents and players and use Buy.at to earn money for your club tour.

Sponsorship

Check whether any of your tourists (or their parents) have successful companies which may be able to make a donation but it's important not to harangue people into donating. Sponsorship is more specific, as the sponsor will expect some exposure in return for their input. One obvious thing that someone could sponsor is the kit: they pay for the kit, and in return their name and logo is printed on the shirts. Other sponsors may prefer exposure throughout the rest of the year rather than when you are on tour, but you could still use their contributions towards your trip. You might be able to get them to make a contribution in exchange for advertising space around your pitch or in the match programme throughout the season for example. Or local bars or restaurants might be willing sponsors in exchange for your patronage throughout the year.
