Benefits of Sponsorship

The Upstate New York area and specifically Rochester has a long history in the game of lacrosse. The area’s deep rooted traditions of established programs coupled with new programs developing each year provides one of the strongest lacrosse platforms in the country. The area continually develops top players that take their talents on to the collegiate level and eventually into the professional ranks. As of this year there are 723 youth programs, 218 high school varsity teams, and 30 college teams in the Upstate area. Lacrosse continues to be the fastest growing sport in the country as it has increased by 138% since 2001!

Partnering with the Rattlers will help capture the attention of lacrosse’s rapidly growing fan-base and take full advantage of the sport’s momentum. A full range of integrated marketing elements are available to reach these affluent sports enthusiasts, including category exclusivity, corporate branding inside and outside of the stadium, ownership of customized promotions, special event nights, database development, activation and cross-promotional programs, and more…
