Bedford Thunder is a new and exciting basketball club based at BedfordAcademy. The club was started in January 2013 due to a lack of opportunity to play basketball in the Bedford area. Students from local schools asked me if I could set up a weekly club that they could attend and that is where we started.
We are now at the stage where we have 15 people attending the club each week (only 5 players needed for a team). We are looking for a sponsor to allow us to take the next step and enter a league in early 2014. When we enter a league we will incur charges that we currently avoid such as extra court fees for game days, referee fees and scorer fees. We would hope that as a sponsor you could help with the cost of these fees.
Why should you hand over your hard earned money ? If you choose to become a sponsor of Bedford Thunder Basketball Club you will benefit in many ways. These include increased media coverage through the local papers (Bedford Thunder appeared in the Times & Citizen 12/9/12), our twitter account, our facebook account and your name will be on the England Basketball website as our main sponsor. There is an option of including your name in the clubs name.
Your name will also appear in many different places including on our team kit, tracksuits and on banner at all home games. We are currently in the process of creating a website and would gladly have your name in a prominent position on our website. The website is due to launch in October 2013.
If you would like to talk further about this exciting opportunity please contact me at your earliest convenience.
Kind regards,
Michael Craddock
Chairman of Bedford Thunder Basketball Club
