Support a Player. Grow Your Business. Be Part of Tynedale RFC's 150th Season.
As Tynedale RFC prepares to celebrate its historic 150th Season, we're delighted to launch our 2026/27 Player Sponsorship Programme.
Whether you're a local business looking to raise your profile or a supporter wanting to back your favourite player, sponsoring one of our senior squad is a fantastic way to become part of the club whilst directly supporting the players who represent Tynedale every Saturday.
Business Player Sponsorship
Our Business Player Sponsorship package has been designed to remove the financial barriers to playing senior rugby at Tynedale RFC, allowing local businesses to invest in both an individual player and the future of the club.
At £400 + VAT, the package offers excellent value and an increasingly powerful marketing platform for businesses.
Your business will receive:
• Sponsorship of a senior player of your choice.
• Two season tickets to all home 1st XV & Raiders league fixtures.
• Recognition in every official matchday eProgramme.
• Company logo, profile and website link on the Tynedale RFC website.
• Recognition across the club's digital platforms throughout the season.
• Association with Tynedale RFC throughout our landmark 150th Season.
Four Teams. One Club.
For the first time, Business Player Sponsorship is available to every senior player at Tynedale RFC. Regardless of what direction the player turns from the changing rooms on matchday, every senior player is eligible for sponsorship.
That's because our digital coverage extends across the whole senior section. Team news, player features and social media content are no longer reserved solely for the 1st XV, they're a reflection of the club as a whole.
The timing couldn't be better. This season sees the Raiders begin life in the RFU league structure for the first time, a significant milestone that will bring new opposition, greater visibility and fresh commercial opportunities. It's another exciting step forward for our senior rugby programme and further strengthens the value of the sponsorship package for businesses supporting players across every team.
A Growing Audience
There has never been a better time to partner with Tynedale RFC. Last spring, our website & social media channels generated more than one million monthly views, with player-focused content reaching audiences well beyond the rugby community.
That momentum will continue throughout our 150th Season. Alongside our regular match coverage, supporters can look forward to enhanced match highlights, in-depth match review features and our new Try of the Week, delivered in partnership with our analysis partners ProView Sports.
We'll also be increasing our coverage of all four senior teams through player features, interviews and behind-the-scenes content, ensuring our sponsored players—and the businesses behind them—receive greater exposure than ever before.
Supporting Our Players
Business Player Sponsorship also removes the annual cost of playing for your chosen player by covering their:
• Senior Playing Membership (£160)
• Canterbury Playing Kit Bundle (£120)
A total value of £280, allowing players to focus entirely on representing the club throughout the season.
Individual Player Sponsorship
Our Individual Player Sponsorship package remains a popular way for family members, friends and supporters to back their favourite player throughout the season.
At £120 (inc. VAT), it's a simple and affordable way to show your support, with your sponsorship recognised by the club throughout the campaign.
Ready to Sponsor?
For the first time, both our Business Player Sponsorship and Individual Player Sponsorship packages are available to purchase online, making it quicker and easier than ever to support your chosen player.
Simply select the player you'd like to sponsor, complete your booking and you're all set for the 2026/27 season.
