Thriving in Worcestershire 

Kidderminster Cricket Club is one of Worcestershire's Premier Cricket Clubs. Their award winning pitch and facilities have hosted more than 70 First Class Cricket matches, as well as many more representative matches across Mens and Womens Seniors, and Juniors teams.

The Club 1st XI plays in the Premier Division of Birmingham & District Premier Cricket League, as well as senior teams in the Worcestershire County League and local Wilden league. The thriving junior section is growing rapidly, and the club has a Women and Girl's Hub accredited by Worcestershire Country Cricket as well as Softball teams!

The club had already had sponsors given that the many opportunities they had to showcase the club. But how has SNAP helped the club with their approach to sponsorship? We we're thrilled to get a testimonial from Junior Cricket Chairperson and Women & Girls Coordinator Sarah Beadsworth letting us know how Kidderminster had benefited from SNAP!

 

Taking the first steps using SNAP

"In just the first few weeks of using SNAP, it has already proved its worth by firstly making us consider the assets and opportunities we have at our club which we could promote to attract more sponsors using a far more professional outward-facing approach and use social media “shout outs” to thank them and promote their businesses, working in partnership to support each other."

Using SNAP, your Assets are what house the Opportunities you have to sponsor. These are then house digitally on your SNAP profile page, meaning that potential sponsors can be sent them to view quickly and easily, no more printing and distributing of sponsorship brouchures and hours picking up the 'phone or visiting businesses! Then making sure your Sponsorship partners receive thanks and have their brand promoted across your channels is made simpler and easier thanks to SNAPS social media sharing tool, perfect for keeping them happy and wanting to sponsor again next season!

 

 

Getting the first deal done!

"The first time we used SNAP to send out an appeal to local garden centres for hanging baskets for our historic pavilion we received an instant response - and 4 beautiful baskets worth more than £100. We’ve also used the opportunities to secure a boundary board and match day programme advert from national company Specsavers. For a grassroots club to attract such a big brand name should help us reach even more sponsors through SNAP."

Using the social media tool on SNAP, it's easier than ever to get to the people in businesses that you want to speak to about sponsoring your club or organisation! And with all your available opportunities listed on your profile, potential and current sponsors can browse and select multiple opportunities to sponsor, allowing you to build a bespoke package based on a sponsors needs!

Many thanks to Sarah for taking the time to let us know how the club had got on in their first month, and best of luck to all the Kidderminster CC teams this season!
