YOUR OPPORTUNITY TO ASSIST CHILDREN IN OUR COMMUNITY

Crowley Independent Soccer Association (CISA) would like to invite your business to partner with us in providing low cost soccer to the youth of our community.  CISA is a local non-profit organization, offering soccer for children ages 4 to 18, living in the 76036, 76123, and 76134 zip codes.  We currently do not receive any sponsorship from the cities of Crowley or Fort Worth.  We own a small complex just outside the city of Crowley. To have enough soccer fields for all of our teams, we also lease park space from the city of Crowley that we must maintain (mow, fertilize, water) at our expense.

During the fall of 2006, we had 656 recreational and academy players registered with us.  This meant we had 60 teams with 51 volunteer coaches.  Our governing board is also all volunteers.

Since our community is having such rapid growth, we see our program growing.  We want to be able to meet the need while keeping our costs low.  Therefore we have created a sponsorship program for area merchants.  Proceeds raised from these sponsorships will be dedicated to scholarships for players needing assistance, providing equipment and education for our coaches, improving our fields, and having an end of the year appreciation event for the coaches and their families.  The coaches are the backbone of our organization.

We are offering 3 categories of sponsorships:  Field sponsors, Olympic sponsors (Gold, Silver and Bronze) and Friends of Crowley Soccer.  The sponsorship is for the spring and fall playing seasons of 2007.  Since we are non-profit, your sponsorship is tax deductible.

FIELD SPONSORS:  $1,000-$2,000.  This helps provide dirt, new grass, goals, nets, or necessary improvements to small fields ($1,000) or larger fields ($2,000).  Each sponsored field will have a sign placed on that field naming the field sponsor as well as the organization name on the sponsor board at the complex. 

OLYMPIC SPONSORS:  This category has three levels.  Gold is $750, Silver is $500, and Bronze is $250.  Each level will have a banner displayed on the fences at the complex.  The gold banners will be 3’ X 8’ and displaying the organization’s name by the concession stand.  The silver banner will be 3’ X 6’ and the bronze banners will be 3’ X 4’.  A fence area close to the concession stand will be used for these two levels.  The banners will be displayed during our spring and fall seasons and stored during the off season. 

FRIENDS OF SOCCER:  $100.  This level of sponsorship will be recognized by a name plate on the sponsor board on our information board.

Every level of sponsorship will be listed on a sponsor’s page on our web site:  www.crowleysoccer.org.  For further information, to arrange a meeting, or obtain a sponsorship form, please contact CISA’s President Ginny Ciriot at 817-297-1377 or ginnyc3@aol.com.  Thank you for helping us to provide an opportunity for the youth of our community to be active, learn sportsmanship, and have fun.

Active children are healthier, do better in school, and are less likely to cause problems in their community.  Help us help them.
