TO VALUED SPONSOR: Thank you for allowing Macquarie Scorpions Rugby League Football Club the opportunity to submit our sponsorship details to you for the upcoming 2014 season. If you are not already aware, the club has undergone a rebuilding process over the last four years and we are of the view we have achieved this with great success With a new more progressive image, the club has a forward thinking committee that is striving to gain the best for the club, the local community and our sponsors. In 2104 we will be involved again in the very successful Lets Tackle Domestic Violence Program through the NSW Department of Premier and Cabinet and the Federal Government. In the upcoming season we intend to be a major player in the Newcastle Rugby League competition, one of our key objectives for 2014 is to build on our success from 2013 and again make the semi finals in our senior grades and hopefully win the premiership. With the quality signings we have made for 2014 we feel this is well within our reach. The club also intends to utilise its position within the local community to nurture and develop young talent from our growing junior and schoolboy clubs, so they have opportunities to play rugby league at the highest level possible in the future. A company such as yours will play a crucial role in providing much needed assistance, at the same time it is hoped we can be of benefit to your business. This proposal will provide you with details regarding sponsorship, as well as an introduction to the club and its committee members. Should you consider that you are able to assist the club with sponsorship in any way, we would be more than pleased to discuss this aspect with you at your convenience.
