The continued maintenance costs of five elite football teams in Niagara presents a number of challenges. Each team has an annual operating cost exceeding $40,000.00. In terms of equipment, football is a relatively expensive sport. Yet, except for cleats, the Spears provide all equipment to its players. Keeping the experience affordable for the youth of Niagara remains a high priority. As such, the Spears rely on financial partnerships with the community in order to keep registration fees affordable.
We have been fortunate that a number of community partners, see the opportunity that our elite franchise brings to the Region. Fort Erie–based Riddell Football was one of our first partners; and over the year’s dozens of other sponsors followed with both monetary sponsorships and donations-in-kind. Contributions from our sponsors allows us to continue our policy of waiving or reducing fees for players who require assistance, and providing grants and bursaries for a deserving athlete While the Niagara Varsity Football Club is flexible and very receptive to any and all ideas for creative and mutually beneficial community partnerships, attractive sponsorship packages have been established:
