For sports teams and organizations, having funding and sponsors is often key to providing young athletes with exceptional coaching.
However, asking a local company to sponsor or donate to your sports organization can be nerve-racking. Ultimately, it’s best to iron out partnership contracts in person, but initial outreach can be made through email or a written letter. It’s important to use this first point of contact to demonstrate the value of your sports organization and outline why a local business should want to partner with your organization.
The business owner or manager that you are reaching out to is likely an extremely busy person, so be concise. Your sports sponsorship letter request should never go over a page and should ideally fall between 300-400 words.
