Sounds sensational when you do it as an individual.  I guess you wont be telling us who judging by your posts but do you continue to try to sponsor the same player or mix it up each year?

Personally I sponsor the same bloke every year - this will be the 3rd year for my current one :thumbsup

Some people mix it up

WP  thanks for the reply 
 Im still undecided re player sponsorship   living interstate i dont see too many benefits except that its a statement of your support for the player and the club   though  it would be nice to have your name on a locker   cheers anyhow

You that embarrassed about him?  ;)

Would have thought looking up at his locker every day and seeing WILLIAMPOWELL in big black letters painted on the door would already be putting a fair bit of pressure on the kid.  :rollin  :lol

Oh well if you don't want to share fair enough (Party pooper). Hope he does you and us proud. I gather he is a young kid who hasn't broken into the seniors yet from your Coburg comment.

Good on you for sponsoring. :thumbsup My in laws used to sponsor Damian Monkhurst at the pies (urrrgh! shudder) They seemed to get a fair bit of enjoyment out of it.

I have a good feeling about that kid, I think he will make it. You could do than worse sponsor Trav.

Don't think it's the same price. On the AFL site it says for 2007 it was $395 for an adult.

I can say he has played senior footy and the Coburg reference was in part for when he's been down watching Coburg :thumbsup

No he's a good kid.

Yes my mate Bill - got to know Billy through player sponsorship. Great bloke :clapping :thumbsup

Normally I sign up before Christmas but due to some unexpected and expensive bills (one o/s trip), it will have to wait till the New Year.
