Sponsorship Packages

The Greater Sudbury Cubs Junior ‘A’ hockey team represents the community of Greater Sudbury and plays in the Northern Ontario Junior Hockey League. One of the Cubs team goals is to compete for a league and national championship with a roster of highly-skilled players between the ages of 16–20 years – that include a number of top-calibre local players from the Sudbury area, i.e. support local! In addition to our on-ice goals, the Cubs organization pride itself on being a valued community partner.

Many of our home games are designed to support local charities such as: Elgin Street Mission, Sudbury Food Bank, Northern Ontario Families of Children with Cancer, and more. In addition, our players are out and about in the community on a regular basis by supporting Winter Coat drives and assisting youngsters at minor hockey practices – just to name a few.

Our team mantra revolves around the 3-Ms of Sports: Moments, Matter and Meaning. Our team goal includes: “Creating Moments” that show people that “People Matter”, and that will provide deeper “Meaning” in everything that we do. This is where our goal of recognizing people at our games, supporting community organizations and initiatives and recognizing the importance of “family” all comes into play for the Cubs and our corporate partners.

Please review the sponsorship levels below and advise on the level of partnership that best suits your business interests and we would be very proud to make your organization a part of the Cubs family!

Sincerely,

Blaine Smith, Managing Director Greater Sudbury Cubs Hockey Club
