In May 2008, the eighth Welsh Capital Masters will be moving into its new home in the new state-of-the-art facilities at Cardiff International Swimming Pool.

The club is very proud to be the first national gala to be held in these new facilities. In previous years the Welsh Capital Masters has been a short course event, but still attracted swimmers from outside of the UK, including competitors from the USA and Australia. With the move to a long course event at one of the UK's top sporting facilities, the profile of the event can only grow.

For sponsors, this is an opportunity to link their brand to

  •   one of the biggest Masters swimming clubs in Wales, Cardiff Masters

  •   a high profile swim meet on the British Amateur Swimming Association calendar

  •   the first major swimming event to be held at the new Cardiff International Swimming Pool.

Promotional opportunities include advertising space within the gala programme; space for the sponsor's brand in the pool facilities on the day itself (either banners or display boards); the sponsor's brand on the Cardiff Masters and Welsh Capital Masters website; the sponsor's brand on any merchandise associated with the event; the sponsor's brand on the ribbons for the individual event medals.

Exclusive sponsorship opportunities exist to sponsor the Club and Age Group awards.

Sponsors should contact Martin Neal, chair of Cardiff Masters Swimming Club at martinjneal@btinternet.com or the gala committee at gala@cardiffmasters.co.uk to discuss associating their brand with the Welsh Capital Masters for 2008 and further events in future years.

Contact: Martin Neal.
