To give our program the best start and to attract the best players in the area, we are seeking sponsors. Having sponsors will allow us to provide the safest equipment and reduce the cost to play for our team. We hope you will view this as an opportunity for your company to support a community activity for young men as well as gain additional business exposure. The Toledo area has many former colle
ge football and professional football players who would like an opportunity to play organized football. Our football team, the Toledo Raptors, will consist of top caliber former professional, Division I college athletes, and former high school athletes who are looking to further their football career or simply continue playing the game they love. We have spoken with the owner/coach of the Dayton Sharks, a Professional Indoor Football Team, and we will serve as farm team for them. The goal is to offer an affordable opportunity for these players to play alongside other top caliber athletes, receive coaching and mentoring, stay in good physical shape, and have an opportunity to move to a higher level of play. In addition, our plan is to require all players and coaches to volunteer with local charities and nonprofit organizations throughout the Toledo area during the year. Players and coaches will be seen in local events like parades, meet the team nights, radio and TV shows. This will not only improve team spirit and build character but provide an opportunity for business exposure for our sponsors. The owner of our team, Julius Cousino, has assembled a team of coaches and administrative staff who are dedicated to assisting these players to achieve their goals and have a winning football team in the Crossroads Football League. We would like to set up a meeting at your convenience and show you our portfolio which explains in detail what we have in order for the Toledo Raptors. We will discuss how your sponsorship can best be showcased to further your own goals of increased business exposure in the community. With your support we can make the Toledo Raptors successful. We have a verbal commitment from the Continental Indoor Football League to move from amateur minor league status to having an arena team in Toledo in 2015. With your help, along with that of other local businesses, we can have a strong franchise team. We hope you will join with us in building a strong football program in Toledo.
