6 June 2013 To Whom It May Concern RE : SPONSORSHIP CONSIDERATION It is with great pleasure that the Gauteng Province will be sending 8 teams to compete in the Provincial championships that will take place in Cape Town between Saturday 29 June 2013 and 05 July 2013. The teams include two teams each of U14, U16, U18 and U20. The selection of these outstanding athletes was done at a regional tournament held at the Vaal Ice Arena on the 25th & 25th of May 2013, this was a gruelling process for the boys but one which they embraced with commitment and fortitude. Sadly ice hockey does not enjoy any monetary assistance and hence this is an extremely costly exercise for parents who in some cases have boys playing in multiple leagues or a son playing in multiple leagues. They are solely responsible for the Provincial costs in its entirety, which totals sum R3700-00 per player, all inclusive of travel, accommodation, meals and provincial clothing. We kindly request your positive consideration with regards sponsorship, as sadly some boys cannot participate due to the high cost of the tour, robbing them of the opportunity of playing for their Province and possible omission on an U18 & U20 level to the South African Ice Hockey Squad that is chosen on the strength that the player displays at this Provincial championships. These young boys are highly talented and we once again expect great results from all our Gauteng teams. Your assistance is greatly appreciated Kind regards
