RESOURCES FOR SPONSORSHIP
To help make it easier for us all we’ve provided you with a sponsorship letter which you can use to introduce the concept of club sponsorship to your employer.
Don’t limit yourself to just your own employer though. We’ve worked out a great deal with the club’s Executive to offset your kid’s registration fees with your fundraising efforts. Raise $500 in sponsorship get 50% off your first child’s fees. A total of $1000 and one child plays for FREE!
Many people think they can’t help because they “don’t know anyone!” You’ll be surprised if you sit down and take just five minutes and start writing a list just how many people you do know who might be a perfect fit. Don’t make the mistake of deciding for them that they won’t be interested. Give them chance to make up their own mind.

Sometimes a simple introduction is even easier and they may listen to us differently than they may listen to you. Let us “do the selling” or provide an explanation of the branding possibilities for you. Drop us an email with your specific suggestions of companies and along with your contacts information and some background and we’ll happily follow up.
Anything that we can do to help you when it comes to generating club revenues or increasing our membership base, please connect with us and let us know.
RESOURCES FOR FUNDRAISING
Participation from parents and volunteers is crucial to our fundraising efforts.
We’re completely open to new ideas and suggestions. If you’re in a successful school PAC program or see a sports team that has come up with a great fundraising idea we’d be very interested in looking at it too.
Please do us the courtesy of discussing your fundraising ideas and getting the prior written approval of the Newton Canadian Baseball Association Executive to ensure that there are no potential conflicts, privacy violations or opportunity for fraudulent or unethical activities. The planned use of proceeds and of any funds collected in excess needs written approval in accordance with our not for profit society status and grant eligibility.
REFER A FRIEND
Do your kids play other sports? Are any of the other kids or their parents interested in baseball? What about at school, church, clubs or associations like scouts?
To make it worth your while we’ve persuaded the executive to credit you back $25 for each new player you refer to the club. Our refer a friend program will credit you back $25 for each new player referred to the club it a maximum of your own child’s registration fee. The new player must register online and use your referral code when registering. To participate in the program you must contact us and request your own unique referral code. We can even set up referral codes for your school PAC and direct the funds towards their efforts.
We have some lofty fund raising goals this season and with your support we can make a significant difference to the kids experience, the club and to the community as a whole if we pull together.
Building a successful association is a team effort and Together Everybody Achieves More. We’re looking forward to working with you.
