Chieftains On Lookout For More Sponsors

Following hot on the heels of the announcement that Grants SEAT being announced as the club's main sponsors for the 2010-11 season, the Chelmsford Chieftains are now searching for further sponsors to come on board as part of Essex's fastest growing sports team.

With the refurbished rink just weeks away from opening and the season getting underway, now is the time to get involved with Essex's premier ice hockey team.

With a high number of existing sponsors continuing their support for the club, the Chieftains are looking to add to those sponsorship partners with new local businesses supporting Chelmsford's aim for glory.

The recent mutual deal with Chelmsford Radio is a sign of how much the club is moving forwards in a commercial way and the club have a fantastic opportunity for one local business opening up. As part of the refurbished rink there will be a brand new scoreboard placed at the rink and it will have the capability for video and still footage advertising. What the club is offering to any local firm, large or small, is the chance to have your organisations name and details up on that screen and regularly announced throughout matchnights to over 10,000 fans throughout the season, as well as prime advertising on the club's website for just £250.

All new organisations that express interest in being a part of the club and it's drive for silverware this season will be entered into the draw and the 1 lucky winner will gain all of the above. For those not lucky enough to win the big screen advertising opportunity, they will still be given space on the Chieftains website which attracts over 1.7m views per year.

There will also be a secondary draw which will see the second name drawn given a free half page advert in the club's matchnight programme.

All entrants will need to have entered by the 31st August with the draw to be made during the club's first home game of the season, likely to be on September 12th V Romford Raiders. A free adult ticket to that game will also be provided, upon full payment.

Any organisation wishing to enter will need to initially send an email to Pete Lewis pete.lewis@sporttrades.co.uk or call Rob McAvoy on 07932651996 for further information. Full payment will need to be made prior to being entered into the draw.
