Positive Patriotism
England is one of only six countries to have taken part in every
edition of the Commonwealth Games and Commonwealth
Youth Games. This heritage makes Team England
insightful, influential and ambitious. Associate your
brand with our rich heritage and success, be part of
our evolution and legacy.
Athlete Association
Our athletes are inspirational; influencers from
diverse backgrounds, a mix of up-and-coming and
established stars. As your ambassadors they can
bring your brand to life through appearances, social
media and campaign features.
INCLUSIVITY AND DIVERSITY – A MODERN
ENGLAND
A team that is truly representative of a modern
England. United as one Team across all demographic,
cultural and physical areas. CSR activation &
participation.
Engage your staff, entertain
your clients
Along with Games time tickets and hospitality, Team
England works with its 20 sports to create bespoke
sports experiences, including taster sessions and
behind the scenes tours. We also have an annual portfolio of
celebratory and business networking events to leverage our
network for our commercial family.
Why become a Team
England partner?
THE BENEFITS
The Commonwealth Games is the only time when England’s elite
athletes compete at a major multi- sport event. But Team England
represents more than a singular event, it’s an English movement.
We champion over 400 athletes across 20 sports. Athletes from
diverse social and ethnic backgrounds, irrespective of age or
disability. A partnership with Team England is a unique opportunity
to associate your brand with this diverse, successful England
team, which delivers a broader audience than any single sport
sponsorship property.
Our four year journey to the Gold Coast in 2018 is punctuated
by two Youth Games in Samoa 2015 and St Lucia 2017. By
following our athletes’ journeys, engaging with them and the Team
England fanbase, you can develop your brand profile and corporate
reputation, motivate your employees, win new clients, boost your
credentials as a socially-responsible organisation and associate
your company with the some of England’s finest sporting talent.
We at Team England seek to recapture the pride, camaraderie and
sporting successes of Glasgow 2014 on our four year journey to
the Gold Coast 2018. Our strategy is designed to cultivate the
prospects of our commercial family, and thereby our athletes, by
propagating a current and engaging conversation among our fans
and customers. We seek partners who share our long term vision
to deliver the best prepared Team England to ever leave these
shores.
