The following is taken from the club web site regarding benefits associated with player sponsorship……..
Support your chosen Bronco throughout the 2013 season through Player Sponsorship.
Benefits include:
• Your player's actual home and away playing shirt from the 2013 season and a signed team picture presented to you at the end of the season.
• Invitation for you and a guest into a shared hospitality box during a home game
• Your name included in every home matchday programme and on the official London Broncos website
• Your name mentioned with any announcements of your player at each home game (including pre-match squad announcements)
• Free access to the Players Lounge after matches
• At the end of season awards dinner player sponsors receive 50% off the price of tickets to the event (up to a maximum of six tickets)
We wait to see if the shirts and team picture will be forthcoming.
Hospitality box……happened earlier in season.
Name in matchday programme and website……happened.
Name mentioned in announcements…….sporadic at best, had to complain to club during season and pre-match inclusion seemed to be dropped towards the end of the season.
Access to players lounge…..happened.
End of season awards dinner………as far as I am aware no announcement was made or invite extended to sponsors to participate.
The club want the fans to sponsor players. We pay the premium and in return expect full delivery of the benefits……not a difficult concept. Not the first time I/we have sponsored players but I suspect it will be the last…lesson learnt and all that.
