Major Sponsorships Now Available
In accordance with the relaunch of the new National Basketball League in Australia and in preparation to the 2009/10 Season commencing in October, the Gold Coast Blaze are pleased to announce that major sponsorship opportunities are now available.

As the newest franchise in the fastest growing region of the country, the Blaze have quickly established themselves as the most popular sporting event during the busy summer tourist season. Additionally, the Blaze present a commitment to community involvement and development that we believe sets us apart. The Club plays a massive role in actively promoting both the sport of basketball as well as healthy lifestyles, through junior associations, schools and amateur teams.

Basketball is a unique sport in that it appeals to many different demographics. The second most popular team sport in the world, basketball has over 600,000 registered participants in Australia, with many more unregistered. Basketball’s appeal to both genders over all age groups is unparalleled.

With a new national television deal set to broadcast the majority of games each week live, interest in the game will only be enhanced and importantly, can now provide our Sponsorship Partners with significant packages which offer exceptional value and excellent exposure to investment ratios.

As such, we are seeking expressions of interest from organisations with strong brands or services, who share our core values, to partner with us as we begin an exciting third season.

Naming Rights
Our naming rights partner receives prime exposure on all advertising mediums and collateral including the front and back of our players’ team wear. This is normally a tailor made package which comprises media, press, PR, signage, hospitality and other sponsorship entitlements and can also extend into having a major involvement in our schools/community junior development programs. As well, we will readily assist you to develop unique strategies to achieve your business objectives.

Major Partner
The Blaze will feature two major partners, both of whom receive excellent exposure at different points on our players’ team wear. Sponsors at this level will also be prominently featured in all of our electronic media, press, PR, campaigns and will be included in all our signage, printed collateral and other communication methods. Naturally, there are many Corporate Hospitality benefits included, as well as numerous opportunities for networking.
