Your Golf Tournament: A Focus on Golf Sponsorships
A key focus of any fundraising event is sponsorship and a Golf Tournament is no different. Organizations
have a lot of opportunity to get creative with sponsor levels and benefits. There are countless unique ways to showcase a golf sponsor on tournament day, and best of all they are supporting your cause. Golf tournaments can attract a different group of sponsors and a different group of donors than a Gala, making it a unique opportunity for your organization and businesses.
When selling golf sponsorships, consider grouping additional guest/golfer value together to create a VIP experience. For example; Platinum Sponsors will get 4 extra drink tickets, VIP table check-in and their company featured as a hole sponsor. You could also consider selling elements of sponsorship for your tournament a la cart.
Here are a few examples of types of golf sponsorship at Golf Fundraising events:
- Title Sponsor
- Hole Sponsor (one for each hole=18)
- Hole-In-One Sponsor
- Tournament Prize Sponsor
- Driving Range Sponsor
- Golf Drink/Beverage Cart Sponsor
- Benefit Lunch or Dinner Sponsor
- Golf Cart Sponsor
- Putting Challenge Sponsor
- Ball Drop Sponsor
Depending on the level of the sponsorship, one, two or more foursomes could be included. You could include tournament game entry with sponsorship or sell it separately on tournament day. Just be certain when planning sponsor benefits that you can follow-through and provide all perks promised!
