2010 SPONSORSHIP OPPORTUNITIES

ATHLETE SPONSORSHIP   (Four Available)                                                                   $300.00
There are a number of gifted track and field athletes in the Bakersfield area who would benefit from the intense training and mentorship offered by our certified coaching staff, competitive experience of USATF and AAU sanctioned meets (including regional and national exposure to college recruits) and the comradeship of a close knit team, but are unable to participate because of the financial hardship.  For the first time in Team RAW history, we would like to offer full sponsorship to four athletes who possess the drive and determination, but lack the financial means.  Your contribution will cover the 2010 Club Registration Fee and a new pair of running spikes (performance shoes) for one athlete.

As an athlete sponsor, you will be prominently listed on the sponsors’ page on the official Team RAW Track Club webpage with a live link to your corporate website page from March 1, 2010 – February 28, 2011.  A press release will be issued announcing the athlete sponsors after which your corporation will be named in media interviews and articles that result. Your logo will be listed with other sponsors on the back of athletes’ 2010 tee shirts.  You will receive an appreciation plaque with a framed photo of the 2010 team.  The application and selection process for the athletes will be managed by The Team RAW Board of Directors and will include a determination of financial need, assessment of the athlete’s performance during the academic school year and interview with the parents/athlete.
