I'm looking for a tennis sponsorship

My name is Linda and I live in Kathmandu, Nepal. I am fourteen years and ten mmonths and love playing tennis. I would really like the opportunity to get a chance to go to a tennis school in the United States. Here, in Nepal, there is not much tennis for girls, so I play with junior boys.
I am a good student and I am looking for a tennis sponsorship for the summer.
If you have any ideas for places where I could apply for sponsorships, I would really appreciate them.
Thankyou,
Linda.

Hi i'm Nick and i love tennis, i play lots of tournaments in under 18's and do pretty well, i'm looking to get sponsored by wilson, but don't know how to apply, apparently you have to send an email with your rank and your tournament results.

Hi i'm Nick and i love tennis i'm 14. I play lots of tournaments in under 18's and do pretty well, i'm looking to get sponsored by wilson, but don't know how to apply, apparently you have to send an email with your rank and your tournament results.

thie is for the USA, dunno about other places:

You can get a sponsorship if you are top 300 in the country from Prince, or top 50 in the country by Wilson. Babolat,Head, and some of the other companies are a little easier to get sponsored by. There are also different levels of sponsorship...to be full by Prince right now you need to be wayyy up there cuz they are low on budget i guess...thats what they told me...so unless you are nop 20 or so in the nation you will have no luck on a full sponsorship by prince. Wilson stays pretty strict with their top 50 rule, and that inclueds alot, but it is not quite a full sponsorship.

hi my names jack im 15 from melbourne, australia. i like tennis very much and do reasonably well in tournaments. does anyone know how to get sponsorship? if not, is anyone interested in having a game sometime? anyone?

do you sign up at prince.com by calling, or email, or another website

firstly, you enter public tournaments and do well in them. its really just a matter of luck and getting noticed by the right person at the right time. there are supposed 'spotters' from various tennis brands (head, wilson, etc) who go to these tournaments and look for people who look like they're good enough for sponsorship.
hope that helped!

Hi girls and boys.

I'm a 16 years old boy from Yugoslavia. I'm the fifth in my country. I have more than 50 cups. I'm also a good student. I want to study and to play tennis in the USA. Here in my country I can not improve my play. First of all, i have no trainer. unfortunately he died. last year. I live in a small city. I play with amateurs. But look, I'm the fifth on the rank list.

Hi @ all,

I'm not that good in tennis, in fact, I think I suck, but sitll, did you ever just call companies and ask if they sponsor you!? Invite them to tournaments that they can watch you play - stuff like that?!? That's something I would do, if I was good ...

Just ask!

Hi im 17 from scotland, same as matthewfirth. I also want to gain some sort of funding so i can pursue training in the usa. There is an academy i fancy going to, but at $30 000 (£17 000) per semester, which is classed as August-June, is slightly out a reach. Not impossible, but difficult shall we say. Just like tennis itself, if you dont got a certain amoun of natural ability, like myself ;) :p then it will be impossible.

Any ideas on funding would be appreciated more than words could comphrehend.

Steve.

p.s my user name was meant to be fed_express or something similar, but i pressed enter by mistake, so im stuck with fed_!!!!! haha oh well

Hello everyone, how are you?
My name is Jelena, I'm 14 and I live in Canada. I'm originally from Jugoslavija (Yugoslavia). I moved to Canada when I was little and soon after (3 - 4 years) I began playing tennis. I'm and excellent student at school and I speak a few languages (Serbian, Croatian, English) and I am now learning French. I have a lot of experience in tennis; I have played all over the world (Australia, Serbia, All over Canada). I'm currently playing U14 years and I am ranked 2nd. I have been to Nationals 2 times and I'm now going again in August of 2005. As we all know tennis is an expensive sport... that is why we all need as much help as we can get. Trust me when I say... "All this will pay off in the long run". You might not be able to afford all this now but imagine how much money you will have when you win a GRAND SLAM! Then you will even be able to help others out. Here is a quote in Serbian... "Samo najuporniji dolaze do cilja"... this quote is hard to translate but in English it would sound a bit like this... "Only the ones-who-really-want-it will reach their goal". In English it is so much longer (the quote).
Okay back to the topic of sponsorship! I'm currently searching for one and I really need one. If you know anyone who can help me can you please e-mail me at >>>

jelenat1@hotmail.com

Remember... "Samo najuporniji dolaze do cilja"... don’t forget!
Yours Truly,
Jelena

Hello all junior Player's, check out our tennis Programs

http://www.fewo-live.de/turm/chris/index.html

My wife is a former WTA player, we can help you improve for a fair price. NO scholarship but want to meet and look at your game. email us tennisreisen@gmail.com

You get a sponsorship by applying to the company you want a sponsorship from. Head calls their junior program "Team Elite," and what you have to do is fill out the form, for example. Just pick around the site for a while, most places will have an application.

hello i have a babolat racquet, bag, strings, grip and vibration dampner and i dont think i could switch to another racquet brand they just dont feel the same - id really like to be sponsored by babolat. i just wrote and email asking them how you go about getting sponsored by them but i dont know even if they will read it/write back. even a few frames and clothing would be pretty good and yeah im in australia aswell.

i emailed babolat and asked how you go about getting sponsored by them and this is what i got in reply;

"Your international junior ranking must be top 20 or your national ranking 1 to obtain sponsorship."

so there u go...

Hi i have been playing tennis since i was 4 i am currently sonscered by Wilson and get latest gear. I have not lost a match since i was 10 and i am currently 15. i have entered competitions all over the world and wilson will pay for anything. if any of you know Roger federer who is also sponsered. He is a family friend and if you want i can put in a good word if you he is who gave me my start. Please contact me at madhatter911@hotmail.com. I know how hard it can be.

My thoughts on this...

Stop worrying about getting sponsored and just play. If you are good enough eventually you will get your chance. Remember not everyone that knows how to play the game can achieve a sponsor. What you should concentrate on is doing your best, and working hard to achieve a possible college scholarship.

That's what I'm working on now and have had many offers from different state schools. I fgure I would be happy being a local pro as I am more realistic. I know I am good, however unlike many pros today. I did not grow up wearing nike tennis shoes with a racket in my hands getting lessons everyday. I am simply a quick learner and good at the game. I will go as far as I can but I don't pretend that Wilson or any company is going to offer me money to play under them. If you feel you are then why not sign up for the USTA and start getting ranked. Once you are well known I GARUNTEE that they will contact you.

Best of lucks to everyone though either way you look at it. Just keep playing, and never loose your love for the game.

I think the usa is unlike every other country in the world.. because everyone is sponsored there even if they are shit.. in australia you pretty much have to be in the top 10 in the country to have full sponsorship by a company and then it is still very hard.

Hi everyone, it appears that these days attaining a sponsor and sponsorship from the start throughout your tennis playing is getting tougher and tougher. But perhaps I can offer you all a little more knowledge in how to get it done, or atleast a proven and effective way to get sponsors that has been done time and time again by successful people trying this process. What it is essentially is the best known process to go after and attract sponsorships to sponsor you as a player. The level of sponsorship varies but the process is proven to work and be effective. Tennis Mates just partnered with this company that specializes in getting players and teams sponsored because the Tennis Mates website was getting so many hits, emails and interest in tennis sponsorships that we had to do something. So we partnered with a group that appears to be the best at what they do and don't quote me here, but I believe that the eBook costs $19.99 USD and the CD Rom costs $24.99 USD plus $4.50 USD Handling. You can get more details and order from our site at http://www.tennismates.com/sponsor-seeking.asp

It's basically a proven system that is a pre-packaged sponsorship proposal kit that can get you cash and equipment. You just fill in the blank spaces in a form, print it out when complete, and then submit to a list of potential sponsors. It also gives you many more tips on how to get sponsored so if you are interested in atleast learning more about the whole sponsorship business and process come check out, "6 things a sponsor (advertiser) wants to hear" by Phil Veldheer at http://www.tennismates.com/sponsor-s..._wants_to_hear

Good luck, and I wish the very best in your tennis play!

i know that to be sponsored by head youhave to be in the top 300 in the nation, or top 25 in your section, hope that helped

Sorry for this very late reply. I have just registered here and found your note. In case you are still looking for some help please contact me at samuel.harminc@gmx.net, I was born in Yugoslavia too, have plenty of international coaching experience, and my own tennis facility. So if you need something please let me know.

if you want to play here in the US, you need to apply as foreign exchange students. i'm an assistant coach at a local high school here in vancouver, WA. we had a brand new high school open here last september and we practically lost all our top players because of the boundary rule. we are currently in a rebuilding phase but we can always use a couple of heavy hitters to come in and help build a competitive team. if you are able to complete the requirements for foreign exchange students, we will do our part here to help you be sucessful and possibly get you into a college team down the road. come and go to school here while playing tennis at the same time? sounds neat but it does take work.

I am ranked 2 in uk and sponsord by babolat because a babolat scout saw me at a tennis tournement so look out fo scouts they are there

Alien Brand tennis strings is giving out string sponsorships to juniors - pretty easy. There is a form on their website http://www.alientennisstrings.com
