Following the success of the sponsorship prize draw over the last two seasons, we are delighted to offer local businesses the same great chance to be part of our journey for the upcoming 2017-18 season.
Last year, 28 companies had their name in the hat and we are once again giving local businesses the chance to be part of our third prize draw, to be held in Gadsby’s on Thursday 20th July.
With a host of great sponsorship opportunities available as part of the draw, your support will again prove vital as we look to build upon our most successful season to date.
In 2016-17, the club reached the last 16 of the FA Vase, just three ties away from reaching Wembley, while also playing at a Football League ground for the first time in the final of the Polymac Packaging League Cup and finishing second in the Midland League Division One.
There are 16 local businesses entered into the draw thus far and yours could be the next! The draw is open to any company who would be interested in becoming a club partner for 2017-18, with shorts sponsorship being first prize. There are ten prizes in all with three levels of entry, all of which guarantee your company’s name in the hat:
- The most basic package at £175, the Captain’s Club gets your business an advertising board at St John’s Park for the duration of the season.
- At £300, the Manager’s Club package gets your business an advertising board at St John’s Park for the season, two season tickets and your logo in the matchday programme and on the website with a link to your own internet presence.
- Our 2014 Club package is available for just £500, offering you the same benefits of the Manager’s Club plus one free match sponsorship included, and your logo on our new interview board. You will also receive four complimentary season tickets instead of two, representing great value for your business to enjoy watching Carl Abbott’s side next season.
Scott Sharman, director of current club partner UK-Link couriers, said linking up with the club has helped his business grow. He said: “Sponsoring Hinckley AFC has really helped our business to expand in the area.
“It’s a very close business community and through our association with the club we have gained several valuable customers. Also, as huge football fans, my whole family love watching our great attacking team and look forward to every match!”
Your company could be the next to grow through an association with Hinckley AFC. As we look to build on our most successful season yet, there is no better time for businesses to join up with the town’s community football club.
