APPLYING FOR SPONSORSHIP

At Cooper Cricket, we love backing passionate cricketers! We understand that every player has a unique journey, and we’re here to support those who want to grow, inspire others, and represent a brand that celebrates the game. Applying for sponsorship might seem daunting, so here’s a breakdown of what we’re looking for, how you can apply, and tips to make your application stand out.

1. Understand Our Sponsorship Tiers

We offer three levels of sponsorship—Gold, Silver, and Bronze—each designed to support players at different stages of their journey:

• Gold Sponsorship: 35% off gear
• Silver Sponsorship: 20% off gear
• Bronze Sponsorship: 10% off gear

Whether you’re a local player just starting out or someone with more experience, there’s a place for you in the Cooper Cricket family.

2. What We’re Looking for in Sponsored Players

At Cooper Cricket, we value dedication, a positive attitude, and an authentic love for the game. We look for players who are active on social media and who are ready to represent our brand both on and off the field. Sponsored players share their achievements, training, and match highlights and help us reach more cricket fans by tagging and promoting Cooper Cricket in their posts.

3. Social Media Responsibility and Active Brand Support

A big part of being a Cooper Cricket-sponsored player is showing consistent, positive support for our brand. We expect our sponsored players to actively engage with us on social media, sharing our posts, tagging us in their cricket journey, and creating content that proudly represents Cooper Cricket. Your role as a sponsored player is as much about being part of the Cooper Cricket community as it is about personal performance, so an enthusiastic online presence helps us both succeed.

Tip: Show us how you’d represent Cooper Cricket by giving examples of how you engage with the cricket community, whether through social media, local clubs, or mentorship.

4. How to Apply for a Cooper Cricket Sponsorship

To apply, simply visit our Player Sponsorship page and fill out the application form. Be sure to include as much detail as possible about your cricketing journey, current level of play, achievements, and social media profiles.

Pro tip: Highlight your goals and how a sponsorship will support your growth, not just your current performance. We love seeing players who are ambitious and driven!

5. Realistic Expectations: Discount Sponsorships vs. Full Sponsorships

Full sponsorships at Cooper Cricket are generally reserved for players with extensive exposure at high levels of the game. If you’re regularly playing in televised matches, representing at state or national levels, or gaining franchise exposure, you’re in a great position to be considered for a full sponsorship. This kind of visibility helps both you and Cooper Cricket reach a wider audience, making it a valuable partnership.

For most players, our discount sponsorship provides fantastic support with high-quality gear at a significant discount. In exchange, we ask our discount-sponsored players to be active on social media and engaged with our brand. We love celebrating and showcasing your cricket journey on our platforms, so your commitment to sharing posts and tagging us makes this partnership rewarding for everyone!

6. Show Your Passion

At the end of the day, sponsorships are about connection. We’re passionate about cricket, and we’re drawn to players who share that passion. Don't be afraid to show your personality in your application—whether it’s a funny training story, a memorable game, or just what cricket means to you. We’re here to help you on your journey, and we want to support players who resonate with our values.
