Are you brainstorming fundraising ideas for your soccer team? Take advantage of the straightforward measures provided by Fund-Team.com. We offer an effective, safe, and easy way to integrate virtual fundraising into your team’s fundraising package.
A soccer team has many expenses, and registration fees and school funding, if applicable, only cover some of them. That's where fundraising comes in. Team members develop a sense of community while raising the money needed to cover the costs when they work together for a common cause.
Ideas for Raising Money for Soccer Teams
Youth Day Camps – When older kids coach upcoming kids, there can be many benefits. Team members learn by teaching while developing character and raising funds for the team. In addition, the team develops stronger ties to the community. Implementation of this type of program can be over a weekend, a fun-filled Saturday, a week over the summer, or a week of after-school practices during the off-season.
Team Merchandise - Allow your team supporters to proclaim their love for the team by designing and selling team swag. Hoodies and T-shirts, water bottles, hats, and draw-string bags are affordable and profitable as fundraisers. The upside also includes more attention drawn to the team!
Kick-a-Thon - Like any pledge-based fundraiser, a kick-a-thon involves team members requesting pledges for the number of goals made during the event and then collecting the donations the supporters pledged.
Local sponsorships - Raise funds through sponsorships by local businesses. Sponsorship may involve signage on the playing field, the business name on jerseys, logo placement on the team’s website, and other recognition on communications.
Fundraiser sales - A classic fundraiser model, selling popcorn, candy bars, and even catalog products to raise funds is a tried-and-true method of raising money for the soccer team. In fact, some teams do the same sales fundraiser every year, to the point that it becomes an anticipated event during the year. The pressure to buy when you don't want to is reduced when this fundraiser is just one of several fundraiser options.
In-game fundraising - Games are terrific fundraising opportunities through raffles and concessions. A raffled item can be donated or discounted enough for the raffle tickets to cover the cost and have profit left over. Parents and boosters can donate their time to sell concessions, and local grocery stores will often offer items at wholesale prices.
Online Donation Campaign - Fund-Team.com serves teams as a 100% web-based donation platform. We offer a convenient and safe way for team members to request and receive donations from potential supporters. This fundraiser requires team members to gather email addresses and phone numbers of friends, family members, and community members and input them during a sign-up meeting.
We provide links for each team member to post on social media and one for the team's social media feed. As donations come in, they're processed through Stripe for debit/credit cards, Apple Pay, Google Pay, or PayPal, with processing fees of around 3%. We take a minimal 5% commission, so each team will retain about 92% of their donations.
Fund-Team.com campaigns raise an average of $300 per student nationally. You’ll receive 80% of the funds immediately and the rest after 60 days in case of problems with payment.
