angel investor program
Welcome to the University of Melbourne Baseball Club's
Angel Investor Program.
The UMBC Angel Investor Program was launched in 2021 as a means of financial recovery following disruptions to our seasons in 2020-21. Over the past few seasons, our club has experienced significant growth, and this program is an important revenue stream for supporting the club’s current and future objectives.
It’s designed to offer a range of sponsorship packages for individuals, families and businesses who wish to support our club financially, in return for a range of club merchandise and various levels of exposure to our current playing group, social media audience, gameday attendees, and extensive alumni database.
Our club prides itself on building long-term relationships with the individuals and businesses that choose to support us, and we actively encourage our network of current and past players to engage with our partners as often as possible. Some of our existing partners’ logos are below.
