2013 APPEAL FOR SPONSORSHIP – IPPLEPEN CRICKET CLUB
Ipplepen Cricket Club is expanding! The 2013 cricket season at Ipplepen Cricket Club will see the launch of a new senior ‘3 rd XI’ playing in the Devon Cricket League, as well as the creation of several new junior teams including for the first time ever an all-girls team playing in the Under 13s division of the South Devon Youth Cricket League. It is probable that our junior membership will be over 100 players for the coming year.
More teams mean more coaches and team managers, and over the past two winters Ipplepen CC have funded the development of 5 extra Level 1 and Level 2 coaches including 2 ladies and 2 coaches aged Under 18. We have also continued to forge closer links within the local community, with Ipplepen CC coaches helping to promote cricket in Ipplepen, Denbury and Broadhempston Primary Schools over the past 12 months.
As with many sports, village clubs find fund-raising a never-ending struggle. At Ipplepen Cricket Club, we have managed to improve our facilities over the last 15 years, but there is always something else that needs money spent on it. The list below gives you an idea of our expenditure plans for the coming season:
• New ‘gang mowers’ for cutting the outfield £3,000 • Replacement netting for practice nets £1,000 • Replacement tops for wicket covers damaged in gales £1,100 • Updating coaching equipment for junior training £1,000 • Playing kits for junior teams x 2 £500 • Provision of ground equipment for 3 rd XI £500 • Purchase of match balls for senior and junior teams £1500
To help fund these and other requirements, we are asking whether you or your business would please become a club sponsor for the 2013 season. You could receive recognition in many ways, including – website link, local press, match day hospitality and/or a sponsors board (8 foot by 3 foot) in the main entrance to the ground.
Bearing in mind we have 4 senior teams, 7 junior teams and approximately 150 playing members attending practice and matches at the ground each week the exposure to your business would be significant.
If you are able to help the club financially, either through specific involvement with one of the projects listed above or simply as a general sponsor we would be delighted to receive your support. IPPLEPEN CRICKET CLUB
