EBA Sponsorship

EBA Affiliate Sponsorships – Let’s Build Together!

The EBA is looking to partner with local businesses through affiliate sponsorships.

By forming strategic alliances, we aim to enhance the experience for our players while also promoting and elevating your business within our growing basketball community.​​

What is an AFFILIATE SPONSOR?

An Affiliate Sponsor is a business or organization that partners with the EBA in a mutually beneficial way.

Instead of a traditional sponsorship where a company provides funding in exchange for direct advertising, an affiliate sponsor typically supports the league by offering exclusive discounts, services, or perks to EBA players, teams, and fans.

 

In return, the EBA promotes the affiliate sponsor through its network, including social media, events, and league communications, helping drive brand awareness and potential new customers to the sponsor’s business. For example, a local gym might offer discounted memberships to EBA players, or a restaurant might provide special deals for post-game meals—both gaining exposure and engagement from the league’s audience.

Why do Affiliate Sponsorship?

Affiliate Sponsorship: A Winning Partnership

​

Affiliate sponsorship is a smart, mutually beneficial way for businesses to support the EBA. Rather than requiring a large upfront investment, affiliate sponsors contribute through exclusive discounts, services, or special offers for EBA players and community members—driving traffic to their business while enriching the league experience.

​

As an affiliate sponsor, your business can:

​

  • Gain exposure to a passionate and engaged audience

  • Build lasting brand loyalty with athletes and sports fans

  • Strengthen connections within the local community

  • Boost sales through targeted promotions to EBA players
     

For the EBA, these partnerships create a thriving ecosystem where players enjoy valuable perks, and local businesses grow through strategic, meaningful collaboration.
