Sponsorship Opportunities
The MRBA works closely with a number of local businesses and organisations to achieve excellent results in our sponsorship packages.
During this critical period of growth, we are seeking sponsors to help us achieve our strategic goals.
2023 programs
There are over 1,000 junior basketballers playing in the Macedon Ranges.
In 2023 the MRBA will provide participation, development and representative opportunities across a range of programs including:
-
Aussie Hoops for 6-8 year olds
-
U10 mixed domestic competition
-
U12 – U18 domestic competition
-
Teams in the Victorian Junior Basketball League for the first time
-
Victorian Country Basketball Championships
-
Open Men’s domestic Competition
-
Men’s and Women’s CBL
We also provide opportunities for players to prepare for tryouts for various state and regional based representative teams by holding preparation training sessions.
Our Challenges:
-
The MRBA is a volunteer-based association with no paid personnel across the committee, program administration and team management functions. We have however been able to fund a part-time Director of Coaching which will greatly benefit our athletes and coaches.
-
To qualify for the upcoming Victorian Country Basketball Championships, the MRBA must run a junior domestic competition in all age groups which is challenging with limited administration resources and court space.
-
Basketball is an expensive sport with uniforms, a year-round commitment and additional costs associated with representative selection.
In order to mitigate some of these challenges, we are seeking the support of regional businesses to get on board with one of our Basketball Partnership Packages.
