EVENT SPONSORSHIP
Durham University Polo Club's 2020 Ball
Why sponsor our event? Well, there are many reasons. Our sponsors have access to Graduates from a World Top 100 University (2019), routinely ranked in the top ten for the UK and ranked first in many disciplines. Not only will sponsors have the ability to share material with future and current graduates from Durham, but also Oxford, Cambridge, St Andrews, and Edinburgh who routinely attend the ball. Durham University Polo Ball also gets National coverage and featured in Polo Times as well as in Tatler's ‘Bystander’ which dubbed the event a ‘roaring success’.
The event also has an association with Polo which is universally known as an impressive and fashionable sport with many of the royal family and other A list celebrities involved in the sport. The Polo Ball is one of the most popular in the university and last year we sold out within hours.
Though the Polo Ball is Durham University Polo Club’s most established event, any sponsor of will also be given priority if you should want to work with us again on any other events or with the club as a whole.
If you have any questions please don’t hesitate to get in touch.
