​​​SPONSORSHIP OPPORTUNITY

​

Sponsors play a key and pivotal role in the success of the athletes on the U.S. Team.  Without the sponsors’ unwavering support, most Olympic hopefuls would not have the ability to compete; unlike our fellow countries, the United States does not pay their athletes for their athletic endeavors.  Training to compete in the Olympic Games in any sport is dauntingly expensive.  Coaching, equipment, travel and living expenses typically run as much as $30,000 a year.  And that figure doesn’t include the hidden costs of a deferred career.

​

As a member of the U.S. Bobsled Association, the athletes involved are able to market the individuals and businesses that fund him/her worldwide through their promotional exposure.  Logos can be emblazoned on the athletes’ helmets, speed suits and sleds.  The athletes partake in a multitude of public appearances during races and other multi-sport media events.  The athletes are also available to participate in photo shoots and other endorsement opportunities.

​
