Dear Business Manager,

I invite you to be part of an exciting opportunity to support the North West Lightning Hockey Club. As a leader in the region of elite sports performance I hope you will consider backing the club and our goal for development towards Premier League competition for both our Women’s and our Men’s teams in 3-5 years.

Previously known as Central Victoria Blazers, the club now represents the north western districts of Victoria, aligning with the junior representative structure. Our Under 16’s teams (boys and girls) are competing in their respective Shield competitions and are keen to build from their strong performances in the 2021 season. Home and away games are played at locations across Melbourne, Bendigo and regional Victoria.

We are focusing on building a strong pathway for athlete development which now incorporates both a development academy with sites based in Bendigo, Mildura, St. Arnaud and Dimboola, as well as supporting Junior State Championship teams in the U13, U15 & U18 divisions for both boys and girls.  We proudly represent regional Victoria and are lucky enough to utilise the world class Bendigo Regional Hockey Complex with new international standard surfaces and amenities.

To help facilitate our ambitious goals we require financial support by way of sponsorship. We have several sponsorship options for the 2022 season. Packages start with individual player sponsorship from $100, including digital promotion on our websites, social media and warm-up shirt. Team sponsorship packages are also available. These can offer further exposure for your business with branding on warm-up shirts which will be worn and appear on various print, video and social media channels. There is potential for logos to be displayed on banners at both home and away games and printed advertising to be provided to visiting teams.

Sponsorship options

• $100 Individual Sponsorship - Small business name on the back of the warm-up shirt
• $200 Individual Sponsorship - Large business name on the back of the warm-up shirt
