Dear Community Leader, Re: 14th Annual Junior Bison Boys Basketball Tournament Sponsorship Opportunity Hundreds of the province’s best youth basketball players will hit the court this spring to play in the 14th Annual Junior Bison Boys Basketball Tournament. We are inviting you to become a sponsor and help make our tournament a success. The Junior Bison Boys Basketball Tournament will be held from Friday April 27th until Sunday April 29th, 2018. Our tournament is one of the largest and most well-regarded in Manitoba and is open to club, school, and community teams. It will be held at two locations: Investor’s Group Athletic Centre at the University of Manitoba and St. Paul’s High School. We anticipate over 425 athletes and up to 1,000 spectators will attend throughout the weekend. By sponsoring the Junior Bison Boys Basketball Tournament you will be helping to provide an opportunity for local basketball players to grow as athletes and also help to promote youth sports in Manitoba. Your generosity will help to ensure the success of our tournament. This year, we are offering four sponsorship package options. We are asking you to sponsor our tournament by making a donation of $250, $150, or $100, or by becoming our Junior Bison Boys Basketball 2018 Tournament Title Sponsor. Attached is a sponsor tier breakdown of what you can expect in return for your donation to this great community event. Your donation will help to provide the finalists in each division with a prize pack; a portion will go towards the Junior Bison Basketball Tournament MVP Founders Award; and it will also help to cover the costs associated with running a tournament of this caliber and size. A Junior Bison tournament organizer will be in touch with you soon. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me by email at
