Just a random punt here, but my mates and I are starting a new cricket team near Bournemouth, and we are looking for a sponsor to put some cash in (about £500) to provide pads, bats, shirts etc.

In return, the sponsor will get their names put on our shirts and on banners around the ground.

So if any of you are interested in getting a bit of exposure on the Dorset/Hants cricket scene, please drop me a mail, or post here!!

Thanks in advance

£500 is pretty cheap to print up shirts AND get signs up around the ground. Have you done your sums right?

Dunno - I'm asking on behalf of our club chairman - I assume he has something sorted out!!

Obviously everything is negotiable!

We did very much the same thing; £500 from a pub (where we generally spend four or five times that over a season); paid for bats, gloves, pads, helmet etc. Shirts and hats were only subsidised by the money, as embroidered shirts are expensive, we all had to chip in.

cracking website - I will mention it to the chairman if we are ever up your way, though Bournemouth seems to be getting ever popular with touring sides, thanks mainly to FYEO, Spearmint Rhino, and the ubiquitous gentleman's supper club "Wiggle"...
