Sponsors

The University of South Florida Ice Bulls club hockey team is currently seeking sponsorships for their 2010-2011 season.

USF is a well-known and valued member of the Tampa Bay community and your association with the Ice Bulls will project a positive image to the public and increase your visibility in the area. Your business will be associated with a team with a long history of success both on and off the ice.

The Ice Bulls are a division III team in the American Collegiate Hockey Association and have a strong winning tradition. The team has been in existence for twenty-one years. They initially played in the now defunct College Hockey South and joined the ACHA in 2003. Between 1998 and 2004, the Ice Bulls won the College Hockey South championship four times.

The team finished the 2009-2010 season ranked 9th in the southeast division of ACHA, making the regional tournament.

The Ice Bulls maintain their winning attitudes off the ice by involving themselves in the community. We believe that it is important to extend ourselves beyond merely playing hockey and our players have logged over 1,000 hours of community service in past seasons, contributing to organizations such as Habitat for Humanity, Metropolitan Ministries, John Knox Village, Vincent Lecavalier Foundation, St. Jude’s Hospital, Toys for Tots and Susan G. Komen. Players have also donated time to work with local youth hockey teams.

Last year, the team raised $1,500 for Madison Goss, a five- year-old little girl who lived in Atlanta. She has suffered from a rare form of cancer. The funds also supported other pediatric cancer related charities through the Madison Goss and Friends Pediatric Cancer Tournament. The team looks to change the direction of this charity tournament this year and raise funds to benefit another deserving organization. The tournament will be held Jan. 14-16, 2011 in Ellenton, FL.

As a sponsor of the Ice Bulls, you will generate valuable exposure for your business or organization. The Ice Bulls continuously create crowds at their games.

In addition to exposure at the tournament, sponsors will benefit from presence on our web site, which had over 2,500 hits last season.

Finally, the Ice Bulls are a non-profit 501©(3) organization and all donations are fully tax-deductible.

Below, you will find sponsorship levels and the associated benefits. If you have any further questions, please do not hesitate to contact us at usficebulls@gmail.com!
