Sponsorship Opportunities At MMTC

1) Latest News

Tennis clubhouse was built 2017

Tennis court resurfacing 2020

This news is the result of 3 years of fundraising, local support, and planning which have all finally paid off, and is a credit to the vision of the Club’s founders and its members since it was formed in 2017.

We now have nearly 260 members, comprising approx. 120 Juniors and 140 .

We are hugely ambitious and have a clear vision of what we want to establish which is a family-friendly club, run by volunteers and with a warm welcome for people of all ages, abilities and backgrounds, with the return of tennis.

2) Timetable for Toilet B;ock Facility Project

It is intended that the transformation of the courts will be completed by the early Spring. The four courts will be:

Work should start in March 2026

3) Next Steps

However, our continuous improvement plans are never complete which is why we are asking for your help please.

There are other improvements we also wish to make when we take on full responsibility for all the Club’s facilities.

Therefore, we are seeking support from local businesses and organisations to help with these additional activities:

Laying new paving – to create a larger viewing / social area
Floodlight improvements (LEDs, switch panels) – enabling us to control usage
Installation of permanent toilet(s) – no longer relying on other facilities
Purchase of equipment – see below
Ongoing running costs – court maintenance, water and electricity

4) Sponsorship Opportunities

There are several levels of sponsorship which should match most available budgets, comprising:

Perimeter Advertising

It is intended that Sponsors’ Banners will be mounted at eye level on the perimeter fence alongside the courts; facing all players, passers-by, match officials and other users of the Melton Sports Village site - not just tennis players.

There is considerable ‘foot fall’ at the tennis courts throughout the week including weekends and weekdays, especially when other sports clubs are hosting tournaments and social events.

Depending on new fence dimensions, banners will be approx. 2.5m wide x 0.75m deep, full colour heavy duty banner with steel eyelets.

Prices are as follows, including free replacement banner during the sponsorship period due to excessive wear and tear.

Year 1 £250, iincluding banner production and erection 1st year then £200 onging each year
Year 2 £350, including banner production and erection for two years then £200 onging each year

5) Funding for Other Equipment

To maximise the benefit of the new courts, we must obtain an array of new equipment which will benefit all users and spectators but in particular our Junior and Disability Programmes.

Your generous sponsorship will contribute to the purchase of these items:

Clay Court Line Sweepers
New Nets and Posts
Junior Coaching Equipment
Spectator Seating
Match Balls – per box

Wheelchair Access Ramp
Players’ Seating
Floodlight Switch Panel
Ball Machine

Some of these items present additional opportunities for advertising and could have your branding; name and logos etc. These can be discussed on a case-by-case basis.
