CCRG sponsors are handpicked by the league’s governing body, and
we strive to select companies that fit the image of positivity,
athleticism, and grass-roots community involvement. We know that
a partnership between our company and yours will provide mutual
benefit and advertising opportunities to a similar target
demographic.
Why do the Capital City Rollergirls need
sponsors?
The start-up costs of a roller derby league are phenomenal. The
single biggest cost to a newly forming league is practice space.
That, plus additional costs for bouting location rental, a beer
permit at the event, additional insurance, any bands we recruit
for half-time, etc. We require dues of our players, but dues
mostly go towards practice space costs. We hold fundraisers
monthly, but need resources to make them happen. In addition to
practice/bout costs, our league is looking at the following
additional expenses:
- Uniforms
- Web hosting costs
- Association membership fees
- Flyers, brochures, and other printed materials
- Merchandise
- Equipment (track lighting, scoreboard software, sound equipment, water coolers, etc)
We need sponsors to donate goods,
services, or financial
backing to help us keep our league
going!
Why should I
sponsor the Capital City
Rollergirls? What can I get out of it?
The biggest return you will receive by investing in the Capital
City Rollergirls is promotion. Your name and logo will be on our
webpage, our uniforms, our flyers.
People will know that you
are an official sponsor of the Capital City Rollergirls. In
addition to the publicity your business will receive by
sponsoring us, we will be more than happy to appear at your
events to help draw a crowd. We can arrange to hold exhibition
shows at your business (if feasible). You will be able to use us
a promotion tool. Who doesn't love girls in skirts and skates?
Do I share in any monetary profits?
No, because the league is a Mississippi non-profit corporation
with pending 501 (c) (3) status, we cannot allow any corporate sponsor to retain
"shares" in our league. You will not have any input on how the
league is run or collect any profits from the league. As stated
above, you will get promotion and advertisement in return for
your contribution.
I might be interested in sponsoring the
league - what can I do?
Right now our biggest need is financial backing. However,
anything you can donate would be very much appreciated. We are
currently seeking:
- Printing & distribution services for flyers, brochures, posters, stickers
- Venues to hold fundraisers
- Items that can be used in fundraisers (raffles and door prizes for example)
- Merchandise services
- Any other useful good or service you could provide
If you are a business or individual that
would like to sponsor our derby girls,
please contact us at

Our Awesome Sponsors!
