The Epping Youth Athletic Association is dedicated to providing quality recreation services and programs to the children of Epping. Youth Sports programs are offered year-round, providing safe, supervised opportunities for children to participate in recreational league play. 

As a sponsor, your support has helped provide financial aid for families in need, develop our equipment and facilities and continue to provide athletic opportunities to the youth of Epping.  We at the EYAA aim to support our sponsors as best we can.  Advertising opportunities at our baseball and soccer facilities, your business name on team jerseys, website promotions, and the ability to reach out to the hundreds of families within our organization has proven to be very successful for our sponsors. The growth and accomplishments of the Epping Youth Athletic Association relies on the relationship with our sponsors.

By participating in the Sponsorship Program you:

•  Help provide a chance for more children to participate in Youth Sports.
•  Help keep the cost of Youth Sports programs low.
•  Help keep children happy, healthy and active.
•  Help keep children engaged in a safe, supervised activity.
•  Have the opportunity to promote your business in the community.

 The Epping Youth Athletic Association welcomes the opportunity to work with new businesses who share in our commitment to all of our players.  If you are interested in sponsorship, please contact the Fundraising Chair at [email protected].

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I sponsor a specific child or team, or is my donation distributed across the program?

Yes! When you sign up to be a sponsor, you can let us know if there is a specific child and their team you wish to sponsor. We will do our best to match up sponsors with teams that their child(ren) might be playing on. 

You can also select a Champion Sponsorship, which supports local children in need who cannot afford to participate. 

What age groups or types of sports are covered by the program?

With sponsor support, EYAA is able to bring Baseball, Softball, Soccer, and Basketball to Epping. All youth sports are available from ages 6-12, with basketball being available through grade 8. 

Are there any events or activities where sponsors can interact with the participants?

Sponsors are encouraged to attend our Opening Day ceremonies at Mary Blair Field in Epping, where a banner will be displayed and sponsors recognized for their contributions. 

How do you promote and acknowledge sponsors?

Sponsorships benefits vary by level, but all sponsors are acknowledged on the EYAA website and on our Facebook Page. For most levels, a sponsor is assigned a team and that sponsor name is listed on the team shirts. For our youngest teams, shirts include all sponsors of that sport. 

*Only 1st and 2nd grade basketball teams receive assigned sponsors (one sponsor listed on the shirt). All basketball sponsors are listed on kindergarten basketball team shirts, and there are no sponsors assigned for higher-grade teams (these teams use reversible pinnies.)

What is the duration of the sponsorship commitment?

Sponsorships are done on a yearly or seasonal basis. However, in order to have your company recognized with a banner at Opening Day, we encourage sponsors to sign up early in the year.
