    Hello,
    This is my very 1st post so I hope I'm in the right forum.

    Anyway, I've been told that various bank branches in my area have been told to sponsor local clubs/events. So the question is could anyone give me some suggestions what I should include in an introduction letter from my club?

    Many thanks.

    The 5 w's -

    Who you are...
    What the club does...
    When and Where is the event....
    Why the bank should sponsor your event.....

    Also mention how much you are looking for.

    Follow up with a visit to the branch and be prepared to wait to see the Manager. They may have other appointments.

    Remember, if you don't ask, you don't get!

    Good luck!

    In addition to Gloom's points above, the no-brainer part of this is the bank guy has been told to sponsor clubs..... you need to convince him that your club is the best one. Find out how many of your members bank with that branch, solicit their help ("The club is trying to get sponsorship from XBranch of YBank plc and if you are a customer of theirs and in good standing with them it would be helpful to our cause if you made a call in support of our application..")

    Thanks very much to both Gloomtastic! and pedroeibar1, much appreciated.

    I was looking at my blank MS-Word document wondering where I could start!
