Player Sponsorship

Player Sponsorship is an important part of our annual team preparation and economic base. We use the funds to help cover the costs of running a 28 person squad and up to 10 team staff.  Although we are a NON - PROFESSIONAL league, we do not ask our players to 'pay to play' and every year we endeavor to create a more cost neutral playing environment for them. That includes air travel, accommodation, meals, unforms, equipment, trainers, physios and all training and game ice time - over $400K per annum. 

Some examples of the high costs for a sport like Ice Hockey;

• The cost of ICE TIME [for all training and games] $450.00 per hour and we use about 100 hours per year.
• We travel with a crew of 22 players and team staff [all by air] for each travel weekend.
• A hockey stick costs $440.00 and our players use / break 3-4 per season.
• A pair of Gloves and Helmet cost $300.00 each.

and 

• We sharpen at least 200 pairs of skates per season.

In 2026, you can sponsor any player for $1,790.00, and a player can only have 1 sponsor. 

If you have seats or tickets allocated through a Membership then you just pay $1,490.00 - prices include GST.

In return, you will receive: 

• Two tickets to every home game in our Bay 2 Sponsors Area [close to the BENCH] for non - members.
• One KARCHER VIP Experience for a table of 4 at any Saturday or Sunday Game to bring your family or work colleagues.
• Your players' HOME JERSEY at the conclusion of the season.
• Two tickets to our exclusive sponsor CURLING event and throughout the season. 
• Two tickets to Skate with the players and all other member events.

The full 2026 player list is published now and as we dd extra players, the list will be updated.  You can pay in line and invoices will be sent on to you and marked as paid.
