Youth sports are a fantastic way to help build character and promote teamwork and self esteem in a great environment. However, in order to effectively run a youth Sport it requires a decent amount of money. This is where fundraising becomes necessary. There are a variety of different ways in which you can acquire money for your youth sporting team. A few sports fundraising ideas are listed below.

Charge an entry fee: Charging an entry fee can be an easy way to start off the season with a good chunk of change for the team. However, it is usually not enough to cover all the costs incurred during the season and can be a barrier to entry for some players. 

Ask local small businesses: Asking your local small businesses to donate a large contribution to your sports team is a traditional form of fundraising for youth sports. This type of fundraising can be a big ask, especially right now when many small businesses are still recovering from the COVID19 pandemic.

Discount Card Fundraiser: Discount card fundraisers are a great Sports Fundraising idea because they allow both you and the small businesses to benefit. We have two different programs where we either handle the details for you, or you handle it yourself. Either way small businesses benefit from the increase in business and your sports team benefits from the donated contribution. It is a win-win scenario. 

If we can help your sports team brainstorm the most effective way to fundraise for your situation please feel free to reach out to our team at any time. We can always be reached at 888-285-0869. We are so excited that sports have been able to resume and that all of the children are able to get back to playing outdoors together.
