  • 2013 University Open Tennis Championships Sponsorship
    The University of Queensland Tennis Club Inc. Sponsorship Proposals Ebony Panoho Open Ladies’ Singles Champion 2012 University Open 2013 University Open Tennis Championships Est. 1911 Sponsoring Tennis Tennis is one of the most popular recreational sports in Australia. It is played by people of all ages and from all walks of life. Because of this diversity, Tennis players are a prime marketing target for just about every type of business. This potential market can be tapped through support of the sport at the international and national level, but it can also be reached by supporting the sport at the grassroots level. Besides being cheaper, grassroots sponsorship enhances the public image of the sponsoring company because the members of the target group actually receive some direct benefit. A major avenue for companies to reach the players at the grassroots level is to support the open tournaments played throughout Queensland. As well as the ranking points events for the top players, most open tournaments run events suitable for all levels of players. With all levels competing, a weekend player could be competing in the D Grade Round-Robin Doubles a few courts away from a quarter-final of the Open Singles. These tournaments are hugely important for the sport. They do not attract large numbers of public spectators but they do provide a focus for the local Tennis community and attract hundreds of players as participants. This provides wide public recognition for naming-rights sponsors. The University Open Tennis Championships, organised by the UQ Tennis Club, is the major open tournament in Brisbane and for decades was, by far, the richest and largest open tournament in Queensland.
