This initial competition has since grown into a large cluster of well-populated tournaments which take place on an annual basis throughout the September - May football season. These range from the Boys Invitational Cups to the adult-played Sunday Vase competition. A huge number of teams from in and around Northamptonshire have taken part in one or more of these competitions throughout the years, spanning from under 12s girl’s sides up to professional clubs such as Northampton Town.
The competitions gain a substantial amount of press coverage, and will enable potential sponsors the opportunity to advertise the company name throughout the tournament, receiving naming-rights such as the “NFA Lower Junior Cup in association with X”. This will allow your company name to spread across the county.
Also, the final fixtures of all our competitions are run at football stadiums around the county, and it is here where your company will profit from a range of services including a full-page advert in the programme to presenting the trophy itself to the winning team.
Sponsoring one of our cup competitions will provide your organisation with the perfect opportunity to advertise throughout the county, providing social responsibility to your local region in the process. We are able to offer a variety of single and multiple cup packages.
Because of the diversity of our different competitions, if you’re looking to promote your company across Northamptonshire, chances are that we cover your intended target audience, so get in touch, and get in involved!
