Sponsors Opportunities

As with the general operations of league ball we are going to need the support of the community to insure the best possible tournaments for all five age groups that we have been awarded for Dizzy Dean State Tournaments. We encourage sponsors to participate in both sets of state tournaments but we have established the fee structure so that you have the option to sponsor just the week that a specific age is participating. We will be doing one program for each of the tournament weeks, not per age group. The ad rates are:

Business card in June or July program $25
Business card in June and July program $45
1/4 page ad in June or July program $50
1/4 page ad in June and July program $90
1/2 page ad in June or July program $100
1/2 page ad in June and July program $180
full page ad in June or July program $200
full page ad in June and July program $360
If you are a current league sponsor you can have your banner hung during one tournament for $75 or during both for $135.
If you are not currently a sponsor but would like to step up for the state tournament banners will be $150 for one tournament or $250 for both.

Any state tournament banner sponsors who make their payment by May 26 will have their banners hung during districts which are also being held at Fossil beginning June 2nd.
There will be 3 spots available on the home page of Fossil Park’s website for $250 each. Web ads randomly placed throughout the website are available for $50.
If your business has a product or service that you feel will be of interest to tournament participants you may want to consider being a vendor. All vendors and their merchandise must be approved by the tournament committee. Merchandise vendors can reserve booth space at the following rates: $250 per day; $500 per tournament; or $750 for both tournaments.
Forms for each of the above items are available here on the website or in the concession stand or you can link to them below.
