Training for the Olympics is a full time job and requires quite a bit of financial support. Some expenses include:
- Basic living expenses
- Training equipment
- Travel costs (to competition, etc)
- Medical expenses
- Coach’s fees
- Competition entry fees
Unfortunately, the biggest sponsor to USA Gymnastics, Chevron, recently dropped their sponsorship. Therefore, we have been told by the national governing body to find our own way of supporting ourselves.
Corporate Sponsors:
Currently, I am looking for one to two corporate sponsors. Sponsorship will include signage (I will wear the company logo on my competition gear at every meet I attend), which will be a great opportunity for advertising as some competitions are nationally televised. As a corporate sponsor, you have the opportunity to get your brand out in these marketing channels:
- The USA National Championships (nationally televised twice over two weekends in September on NBC)
- The Winter Cup Challenge (streamed over the web on usa-gymnastics.org)
- The Stanford Open (streamed over the web on the Stanford Open website)
- Coaching and Judging clinics throughout the US
- Company logo, description and link will appear on ShoNakamori.com
Speaking engagements can also be scheduled with prior notice. If interested, please let me know at: shonakamorisupport@gmail.com
