I work for ESPN as an intern and I have a project where I need to find a list of sponsors or corporate partners for each NFL team, but I don't know how to go about doing that.  What should I do?

why don't you email the teams and ask their front offices. Maybe the league office has a list of individual team sponsors.

You need to contact the NFL main offices and/ or the National Football Leagues Players Association.

It is very hard. I watch the NFL network very often, & various NFL films on espn, espn2, & espn classic. I read through NFL answers on here, & am getting ready to start studying for the upcoming Fantasy Football season. I watch movies about the NFL like the longest yard & brians song. I am grading different teams drafts & free agent signings & losses so I will be able to be a step ahead of everyone come september.

Here is the link to the application.  It does not mention anything about sponsors...did you mean supporters?  If so, I do not think it would matter if you just list 2 people...

Ask some of your local businesses, that what most people do. Here a girl's softball team approached mine and another man's business and we contributed for Uniforms and some equipment. I even went to most of their Games and brought them Snacks and Drinks. It was fun and there many out there that will do this, IF, the team will go around and Ask and Inform the potential Sponsor(s)\nDo not underestimate the small businesses too, Heck, Bob's Bar and Grill may surprise you, or, Julie's Bouncing Animal Pet Shop. ;-)

All what you have to do is to prepare a presentation to the potential sponsor/s including the following;\n\n1- Your Cheerleader History\n2- Your forthcoming contribution in new events\n3- Why they should sponsor you ? \n4- Your specifications (Body, Hair etc...)\n5- Include pictures of your recent Cheerleading events\n6- Mention that what you will wear should represent the potential sponsor\n\nGood Luck

If it is a team fine, then it goes to the Company or owner of the team to be used as management of that company (team) in repairs, uniforms, or just to help the team. If it is a league fine, then I believe that they say it goes to the NFL or whatever league for the betterment of the league.  Prob still goes into the commish's pocket, but for their sake, I am sure they would say that it is donated or used for advertising or some crap like that.

Ratboy is way off mark. Of course the company wants to be recognized for their sponsorship! It depends on the nature of your organization. You may be able to give a number of complimentary tickets to events hosted by your organization (ex. 12 free tickets to your play if you are the drama club). The sponsors at the higher level should be included on anything you print (including fliers, calendars, or posters). The sponsors should be recognized at events. They may provide you with a banner to hang, and you may wish to thank your sponsors through an announcement.

Try searching for the name of the player/team you have in mind in Google or Yahoo! Search (or any other search engine), then click the Images link.

I got my Seattle Seahawks one from Just Sports in the mall. They can order one for you in your team (da bears). There are a few other places the check, eastbay.com, ebay.com, nfl.com and of course the Bears website. There should be a variety to choose from that way. Good luck finding the one you want.

If you want to find a sponsor all you have to do is ask them. Try and find local buisness's that a popular to the local's. If they pitch in you can display their logo somewhere on your feild or on your jerseys. Local buisness's love to support team's because they get advertising it helps the kids out and they get a good name to lots of people.

try http://cbs.sportsline.com/collegefootball/alumnitracker/school\nclick on teams and it will take you to college teams by conference.  click on which ever team interests you and when it comes up, there will be an alumni tracker option in the banner.  A lot of work if you want them all, but fine if you are just interested in a few schools.

Race to start with and if you do that make a name for your self by winning and competing. If you done that then maybe start advertising yourself to owners. Kinda like what Carl Edwards did. You might start out on different team but you can trade up after contract up. Good Luck On Life

Corporate sponsorship of youth sporting events is big business. Most corporations have annual budgets for sponsorship and charitable donations, relative to forcast revenues based on past business performance. An arena that holds 4000 is considered a minor or small venue and the advertising to head ratio return on such an event would be minimal. Depending on how much sponsorship you need, looking for multiple sponsors may be the best avenue. A business plan shows that you are organized and professional, but you still need a compelling cause. Coca Cola puts their name on just about every event held, it brings very little cache'. Seeking event sponsorship is a full time job. Top tier corporations are slammed with requests daily and very few squeak through the first gate.\n\n1. Develop a query letter.\n2. Pick at least 100 companies that you believe will benefit from exposure at this event.\n3. Contact each of these companies to determine if they are candidates for sponsorship without asking for sponsorship. You need to find out if their charitable expenditures are tagged or if they are open to requests.\n4. Offer exclusivity on a first come first served basis.\n5. Redefine your scope and expand your search net to 100 second tier companies. \n\n\nUnfortunately, this is a time consuming process and you have very little time left.

While there are strategies on and off the field to learn, this is a people business.  Knowing how to communicate to people to motivate them to achieve their best is what you want to focus on.\nDo your homework by finding out where the current and recent past coaches came from.  Find the name of every coach for every team in the NFL over the last 10 years.  Find out what their backgrounds were.  Did they start as players?  Coach college first?  Find the coach(es) that you want to embrace as role models, not for their winning record, but for their ability to get the job.  A background you can relate to and emulate.  Start with coaching right now.  City league football or YMCA or HS asst. coach.  Try private schools since they're not a govt. agency they may be easier to get started with.  There's nothing like doing it to learn to do it.  You have to be able to asst. coach HS before you can asst coach college ball.  You have to understudy a good college head coach before you can be a College Head Coach.  If you can't with a college team, you won't be going to the NFL.  You have to prove yourself so you might as well get started.  Degrees and resume qualifications won't get you the job.\n\nThis is a relationship based business.  Start placing yourself in correct environment to initiate, build and nurture those relationships.  Look on the sidelines and find out who's there and who they work for.  Relentlessly pursue the job that puts you on the sidelines.  Read "The 21 Indisputable Laws of Leadership" by John Maxwell.  Get a hold of the team chaplin and volunteer to help him with anything, making copies, running errands, anything.  Don't take "no" for an answer.  Don't be annoying, be persistant.  Did I mention to refine your people skills?\n\nGo for it!
