Dear

I write you, as a fellow tennis enthusiast, (or say something else personal here if

you know them), to let you know of an opportunity that may interest you and your

company. The XYZ Community Tennis Association is hosting its Third Annual

Memorial Tennis Tournament August 25-27, 2007. I invite you to participate as a

sponsor of this event, the premier tennis competition in our region.

Proceeds of the tournament will support disadvantaged junior tennis players in

our community who have promising tennis futures at the college or even professional

levels. However, many do not have the resources to obtain necessary training/coaching or

to attend regional competitions. For many of these teens, a tennis scholarship is their best

chance to earn a college education. You might have seen the recent article about Joe

Smith who was recruited by ABC College for his outstanding tennis credentials. Joe is a

graduate of our program, and credits support from the CTA for his success.

Last year our Memorial Tennis Tournament, in only its second year, attracted 100

players and raised $5,000. With your support this year, and the continuing support of our

past sponsors, we feel confident we can achieve our goal of $10,000 this year.

I have attached a Fact Sheet about the Tournament, and a description of the

various sponsorship opportunities and benefits. In addition to the specific benefits

associated with individual sponsorship levels, sponsors will enjoy increased name

recognition and goodwill in the local community. The total sponsorship package offers

exposure that can be more directly targeted, more effective, and less costly than

traditional advertising.

After you have had a chance to review the information enclosed, I would be

happy to answer any questions or custom design a sponsorship package to fit your needs.

I will contact you within the week to follow-up.

I look forward to your support in making our Memorial Tournament a smashing

success. Thank you for your consideration.

Sincerely,
