Fundraising Ideas for Sports Teams

  • Tournament - From basketball to soccer, sports are games meant to be played. Hosting a tournament that involves registration fees for participation, entrance fees, and snack/drink sales can bring needed attention to the team, recruit new participants, and rake in the dough for purchasing equipment, uniforms, and transportation arrangements.
  • Fundraising Restaurant Partnership - Easily arranged and mutually beneficial, partnering with a restaurant for a fundraiser is an excellent way for the restaurant to generate community goodwill and move up on the list of area favorite eateries while helping teams raise money. Ensure that the team advertises the date their supporters should eat at the designated restaurant to get maximum results.
  • Car Wash - Washing cars for the public is a well-known milestone for every team. Banding together to scrub vehicles at the local auto parts store is as time-honored as any other traditional fundraiser. Make sure you spread the word via social media and choose a location with plenty of visibility off the street. 
  • Raffle - Yet another tried-and-true fundraising idea is a raffle. Sell tickets for prizes or cash where the winner will be drawn during a game. A 50/50 raffle is an easy option. Set a goal to raise and sell twice as many tickets as that goal at $1 each. That's it.
  • Yard Sale—When spring hits and the weather turns bright, community members will want to spend their weekends outdoors, and yard sales will be a popular pastime. Hold a team-wide yard sale for an incredibly successful fundraiser. Each team member's family likely has some valuable items that they no longer need, and the team's coffers can benefit.
  • Trivia Night—Surprisingly popular among the younger set, trivia is an engaging way to attract a variety of community members for a fundraising event. Charge for food and registration, offer free game tickets or team merch as prizes, and reap the benefits of a good time and fundraising success.
  • Donation Drive through Fund-Team.com - Choose Fund-Team.com for the most convenient, safe, and successful virtual donation campaign possible.
