In May of each year - by appointment
of Golf
Australia and in association with the Golf
Queensland - Keperra Country Golf Clubs hosts the
72 hole international Keperra Bowl. This event is
the only national amateur selection trial held
each year in Queensland and
is a world accredited golf event …. sanctioned
by the R. & A. in Scotland.
The Keperra Bowl is
now the premier golf event in the Brisbane metropolitan area
and it attracts a maximum field of 156 of the best
amateur golfers from Australasia and worldwide
.. most striving to represent their country and allendeavouring
to accrue world amateur golf ranking points.
Each year, our club has
succeeded in attaining its mission of providing
the best 72 hole amateur event in Australia
and this plays an integral role in assisting our
club in its continuing quest to foster the
development of golf
worldwide.
Of course, paramount to the success
of any major event is sponsorship and a myriad of
opportunities present for astute
companies/corporations who wish to be associated
with a local event that attracts national and
international exposure.
And, as part of this investment, it will
soon be evident that – as well as being a very
cost effective medium to expose your brand –
this sponsorship leads to many fun activities
associated with the bowl.
EXPOSURE AND BENEFITS - MANY COMPLIMENTARY
The exposure and benefits received -
as a sponsor of the bowl - are too voluminous to
list now in this publication and are depicted in the
club's year to year sponsorship flyer.
YOUR
INVESTMENT
The
cost of being a sponsor of the Keperra Bowl
commences at $1000 plus GST and then rises
with cost by
negotiation.
MAJOR SPONSORSHIP OF
KEPERRA
BOWL -
with naming
rights
The Keperra Bowl is now a world
accredited 72 hole amateur golf event .. scheduled
into the world golfing calendar.
As such, it attracts expansive
exposure throughout the golfing world and a
testament of its global standing is the escalating
number of international entries that are being
received from all sectors of the
world.
Naturally, with each
succeeding and successful year, Keperra Country
Golf Club is justifiably proud in vindicating the
confidence shown in the club by GolfAustralia
and already, we are working tirelessly to
replicate the success of “the bowls” from 2005
to 2008.
Our experience through these years
suggests that critical to the success of any major
sporting event is both media and sponsorship
support.
From the outset, we have marveled at the
support extended by most facets of the media but
this event has subsisted to date on limited but
appreciated support from regular smaller
sponsors.
Right now, this event needs a major
sponsor who will be granted the naming rights to
the event!!
Should our club be successful in
attracting this sponsorship, two objectives will
be achieved –
.
it will underwrite the financial future of
this world accredited event .. at
least for the duration of the sponsorship and
.
it will expose the sponsor’s brand to the
world
..
leading into, during and also, after the
event

HOLE IN ONE SPONSORSHIP - exciting
year round exposure specifically directed
at our members
Each year, around 15 “very
lucky members” of Keperra Country Golf Club are
rewarded for their years of patience, persistence
and determination on the golf course by having a
“hole in one” during competition
play.
This is one of the most prized achievements
in the game of golf yet - by tradition and
reward for effort to date - each “lucky
shooter” only receives a bottle of scotch from the
club.
It is now proposed that a sponsor/s be
sourced to “up value” each reward for effort with the
presentation of “an acceptable attractive prize
package” with a value of around $400. In essence ,
this will mean that - every time a member
of KCGC steps on the tee of every par three during
competition play - they will be shooting for a
valuable prize if they “hole in
one”.
It is believed
that this proposal - on this scale will be
unique to our facility and as well as
attracting media attention, will become “ the focal
talking point” for all members .. during every member
competition throughout the whole of the
year at KCGC.
Benefits/exposure points with “Hole
in one” sponsorship are –
-
Year round on course
signage
-
Year round acknowledgement
as “hole in one sponsor” for KCGC
–
.
on club website (including link if desired)
.
in club annual fixture book (the “bible” of
all members)
.
in house television presentation and
.
in each quarterly newsletter to all
members
.
on each occasion a member “Holes in
One”
-
Formal launch of
sponsorship
-
On
launch day – field banner, microphone
announcements, flyer distribution, advertising in
club house, four playing spots in corresponding
competition
Opportunity - if still
available - to become an exclusive trader in
business with KCGC
COMPLIMENTARY
BENEFITS
This sponsorship attracts
the following benefits .. valued at over
$400
-
One complimentary room
hire – in course of
sponsorship
-
Complimentary invitation
for two players – KCGC Corporate Xmas party.
Your
investment –
This sponsorship proposal
is ideal for any businesses that have or are
prepared to acquire products/service that are
attractive/suitable to award the recipients.
SOLE
MAJOR SPONSORSHIP OF KEPERRA
COUNTRY GOLF CLUB - the ultimate year round
exposure at world accredited golf
facility
As an introduction to
this exciting “whole of year” sponsorship option,
you should first glean the opportunities that
present for a group and a major sponsor with
naming rights of the Keperra Bowl in the preceding
pages of the publication.
Now, from a
benefits/workability perspective - for our club as
well as a potential sponsor - it would be ideal to
attract just the one sponsor to take
on
these joint major options i.e. the sole
major sponsor of the bowl with naming rights and
the sole major “year round” sponsorship of Keperra
Country Golf Club.
Put simply, the year
round exposure from these two mediums - at a
local, national and international level - would
soon return handsome dividends to an astute
sponsor.
BENEFITS AND EXPOSURE
The
complimentary benefits and exposure for both
options would be as enumerated earlier in this
publication for a major sponsor of the bowl with
naming rights as well as the following -
Company logo displayed year round in
clubhouse
Company logo to appear year round on all
printed and electronic matter including
–
.
In-house multi screens (product/branding
advertisements)
.
Club website - www.keperragolf.com.au
.
All communications with members
.
Most external marketing and
advertising
.
Verbal and written acknowledgement of major
sponsorship during most major club activities
.
Optional – opportunity for two sponsor’s
representatives to attend most major club
functions
COMPLIMENTARY
BENEFITS

additional playing spots in each corporate
supporter’s Christmas golf day
(including lunch, golf on a
cart, beverages and

year is $30,000.00 including
GST.
For longer periods, the cost will be
