Sponsorship
     
why should we become a sponsor?  

We're out, proud and one of the best gay teams in Europe. We need a sponsor to help with a range of costs, including a new team kit. Help us to fly the flag in Hannover, or at the Gay Games VI in Sydney, 2002.
   
badminton is the most practised gay & lesbian sport in the UK.  
Badminton is a national sport. It ranks in the top 3 most practised sports in the UK, and it is the most practised gay and lesbian team/competitive sport in the UK. A good indication of the massive popularity of the sport is that the 1996 Olympic badminton finals had a TV audience of nearly 1.2 billion people.
Gay & lesbian sports clubs are growing all over the nation as more and more gay men and lesbians turn towards 'non-scene' alternatives to occupy their leisure time, and are finding that there are places such as St Gabriels where they can enjoy their respective sports and feel free from discrimination/homophobia.
   

traditional advertising just can't match our impact.

  

Gay & lesbian consumers are early adopters, have above average disposable income and research shows that they choose and are loyal to brands and products which pay more than just lip service to the gay community. St. Gabriels players are seen all over Europe by thousands of your existing and potential customers. . Put over a powerful brand message to valuable gay and lesbian consumers by showing your support for a winning team.

   
strong support and our team spirit - a winning combination.   Stonewall F. C. and their sponsors Central Station have attracted a huge amount of national press interest and supporters. St. Gabriels has also built a great reputation with other gay sports organisations and the gay press. This isn't just due to our success, it's through our attitude and committment to the game. It's also because of our true team and competitive spirit wherever we go, and our desire to make a significant contribution to gay & lesbian sport. We're looking for a successful partnership with a company/business who are as positive and committed as we are.
