Christmas is a time of giving and receiving goodwill. People as well as businesses are more willing to give, share and be part of the yuletide. So, if you ask them to be part of the football tournament your village or community is organizing this period, they are more willing to respond positively, as long as you are not asking for too much.
Big brands like Coca-cola, Cway water ... love to take their Christmas to the grassroots and if you have inside connections to these companies, you can propose to them to become the exclusive sponsors of your community football competition this year.
Otherwise, look for businesses located in and around your community. They may not be able to resist the opportunity to earn the goodwill of the villagers, who are ultimately owners of the land where they do business and also their customers too.
The first thing is to list out all businesses located in and around your community that may be interested in sponsoring your community football tourney..and possibly categorize them according to their perceived financial strength.
Then, make the budget and itemize the cost of things required:..Trophies, medals, footballs, jerseys... Cost of pitch, referees, commentators, public address system, transportation etc.
Decide what you can offer the brands or businesses in return:... sponsorship banners, flags, billboard or sideboards in and around the venue. You can also offer brand advertisement on the teams Jersey or advertisement space on the tournament brochure or fixtures booklets...
Now, write a very attractive proposal to these businesses and brands letting them understand the goodwill benefits they will start enjoying from the villagers for sponsoring their football tournament.
Then in the proposal, offer associate sponsorship regime for three categories and state what each category will get in return for paying the category price.
If the tournament organizing committee handle well this great idea above, you will find out how easy it is to get sponsors for your communityvtournament.
Have a Merry Christmas in Advance!
