Commercial

We pride ourselves on forming long-lasting working partnerships with local businesses. Read on to find out how we can work together to build the most successful sports club in the county.

WHYSPONSOR?

As a not-for-profit community organisation, our sponsors know that their money is being invested in creating incredible opportunities for people in Cumbria and South West Scotland. Our club operates across the County and our men's team compete nationally meaning incredible exposure for all advertisers.

Brand Awareness

Our brand is the most important thing to us so rest assured yours will be protected by association. Our sponsorship opportunities are highly visible, offering exposure to thousands of consumers via our home match day sell-out events, our own club social media following and the FA’s National Futsal Series competition.

Drive excitement

Sport excites consumers. Get involved in the excitement by partnering with one of our athletes, our first team, our academy programme or an event to put your brand and mission in the heart of the exciting conversation.
Now is the time to sponsor the club with the National Futsal Series launching futsal on TV over the coming years. Futsal is set to boom and you can be a part of it.

Increase Sales

Our academy teams, sports events and our athletes can all help you directly drive sales. We can work with you to provide direct benefits for your customers. This could be anything from a discount on match day tickets, to using our athletes to promote your product or service. Let’s talk about what will work best for you.

New Audiences

Our club members and our fans spend a lot of money on gadgets, services, fashion and entertainment. What better way to break into our community than getting exposure to all of them with a Carlisle Futsal Club sponsorship deal! Word of mouth marketing is extremely effective in our catchment area, whether through chatter from our fans on a matchday or our athletes meeting up at training. Tap into that by promoting your company with us.

Drive traffic

Getting backlinks to your website from our athlete profiles, our club website, or event websites back to your company website can help drive new website traffic. Whether that’s logo placement on the site, a link to an event on a social media feed, or sharing blog content on any of their digital domains. Our Instagram videos often get over 20,000 hits and our Twitter following is 6,500.

Tax relief

Sponsorship costs are tax deductible for your business. We have sponsorship and advertising opportunities that will help get your business in front of an audience you might not otherwise have had access to.

Your costs relating to sponsorship can be claimed as an expense. Items you can claim for both in your VAT returns and end of year tax returns.

SPONSORSHIPPACKAGES

We offer a variety of packaged sponsorship and advertising opportunities and we can also discuss custom packages to best suit your needs. Just get in touch.
