How much do you think one can charge to get the advertisement of their choosing (banner) on a shirt of a team competing in a national game. the game can be found on www.usfirst.org (it's called FTC) What do you guys think? We need to raise money for equipment and stuff, so this would help us tremendously. (There would be at least 5-6 people wearing shirts)
Maybe write a letter to the folks that make the things you need and see if they will front the money for shoes or something. Get a web page and offer links to them, or ask if there is any other needs you can meet. I am sure there are official ways to do this, so look them up. Also check your local sporting good stores to see if they can help in the cost for advertising. Scratch that... heh, call Radio Shack, or local electronics stores. Many would love national/cheap advertising. Especially if you won, as you could have local press releases with their name in the papers.
