CROYDON FLYERS BASKETBALL CLUB HOPE TO NET NEW SPONSORSHIP FUNDS

Basketball is a sport which is attracting more and more followers, in terms of both participants and spectators. International tournaments organised by FIBA (the International Basketball Federation) achieve good levels of media coverage and there is a flourishing national, regional, district and schools league structure. But whilst teams higher up the ladder look to major sponsors and central funds as a means of attracting financial backing, more modest sponsorship can play an important role for smaller clubs. One example of a local team currently seeking sponsorship is Croydon Flyers Basketball Club, a club for girls between the ages of 8 and 16. Croydon Flyers recently won the Crawley Mixed Summer League and are looking forward to the coming season with eager anticipation. They are particularly keen to raise sponsorship funds to help pay for items such as equipment, sports-hall hire, minibus hire and referees. Contact: Karen Stephens. Tel.: 07944 899150.
