Our Academy was founded in 2018 and will look to continue this success.

Our Demographic Our Adult and Women’s players are in the 18-35 age bracket with disposable income. People in this age range typically tune out traditional advertising, but by sponsoring us you can reach those in our team, and their friends, as they will share our content to them. Engaged Supporters American Football is a niche market with passionate support, this can give you an amplified message to this audience due to fewer sponsors in American Football than other sports in the UK. Social Responsibility You have an opportunity to build goodwill with local community by supporting us financially. We are active in the community and have an annual Charity Day at one of our home games to raise money for good causes. Online Content American Football is a bright, colourful sport that makes for great, eye catching social media content to liven up your pages. American Football is Growing Fast According to StubHub, demand for the London games is up an incredible 333 per cent in five years, and 40 per cent on last season, despite there being one fewer game. The NFL is no longer arriving in the UK, it’s already here—and it continues to grow exponentially. By sponsoring us now, you will be in a prime position to take advantage of this growth in supporters. 5 Player Sponsorship - - - - Cost: £250 per Player ​ ​ Looking for a cost-effective way to support the Portsmouth Dreadnoughts?

Sadly Covid-19 is going to continue to impact not only our sport, but all sports for the foreseeable future.” The next 12 months are going to be tough both in the BAFA community but also for many members and their families who are facing personal challenges as well. The one thing I can promise is that we will continue to work hard for you, our members, to ensure that there is and will continue to be a sport and a National Governing Body for the future.

It’s my hope that you can see some of the advancements we are making on these critical issues in this report and our commitment over the next 12 months to continue to address them.
