Youth Soccer Programs Need Sponsors

The Lake Wales Soccer Club is looking for additional corporate sponsors for its spring and fall programs.

Cost to sponsor is $250, which is tax-deductible. Spring sponsors get their business name on the shirts of all players. Fall sponsors have their company name on each jersey for a specific team. The company also receives a team picture plaque to thank them for their sponsorship along with other recognition on the Club's website and literature published throughout the soccer community.

The Soccer Club now serves more than 700 local boys and girls playing soccer either recreationally or competitively. The numbers increased 25 percent this past year. Ages are from 3 to 19.

"We continue our efforts in providing soccer facilities and an avenue for both the recreational and competitive player to be able to participate in the greater Lake Wales area," according to the sponsor information form signed by Club President Robbie Shields and Vice President Tony Mathewson. Shields said the Club needs Spring sponsor commitments very soon, as play begins in March.

The sponsor form is available online at https://www.lakewalessoccer.com/Default.aspx?tabid=1438311. Form should be completed and $250 check payable to Lake Wales Soccer Club should be mailed with it to 3570 Silver Oak Court, Lake Wales, FL 33898.
