Touch NZ is excited to announce the “Have you got our Back” funding campaign targeted at the Touch Blacks competing at the 2018 Open Trans Tasman Test Series against Australia in Rotorua in April 2018.  The intent is to sell the back of each players shirt @ $1500 plus GST per shirt to individual sponsors & partners with comprehensive benefits going to the partner.  Our elite players are all user pays, even when representing their country at the highest level, so we are really enthusiastic to have finally got a project off the ground to support these athletes.  

We have set a timeframe of 31 December 2017 to have sold all 48 shirts to sponsors that are keen to be involved. 

Benefits to the Partner

• Invitation to VIP Hospitality Function on one of the playing days (Day 2)
• Logo on players jersey (top / back)
• Logo on media board displayed during televised captains interviews
• Media coverage
• Signed players jersey
• Fully tax deductible 

As Touch NZ is registered with the Charities Commission the sponsorship is tax deductible.

This project sets the ground work for a similar funding project planned for the Touch Blacks for the Touch World Cup in 2019 in Kuala Lumpar Malaysia. The front of shirt for all three teams is also available should anyone express interest as we work through this process. 

If your business might be interested in sponsoring a shirt please contact Sandi for more information. This could be a good promotional and networking opportunity for your organisation. Also a great day out at a Touch test series.
