Options to Allocate Your Funds

What Your Sponsorship Supports

Allocate your funds to one of both of the following areas:

  • HSA – Support technical training tools, clinics, educational opportunities for coaches, parents, and support staff, travel for national competitions, team events, and swimmer recognition.
  • Swim4Success – Supports HSA’s free lesson program and Sea Dragons, which is focused on coaching and mentoring youth in underserved areas of Huntsville. Additionally, funds from this account will provide scholarship opportunities to local swimmers looking to swim for HSA and/or in the Rocket City Swim League.

Membership Resources for HSA Families

Eligibility

All families within the club are eligible and encouraged to participate in securing sponsorships.

Guidelines

All sponsorship forms and payments must be submitted to the HSA Operations Coordinator (Arthur Fortin). The Board reserves the right to review and approve all sponsorships. Businesses that conflict with the mission or values of the Club may be declined. Questions or concerns about the program should be directed to the Board or the HSA Operations Coordinator.

Tracking & Accountability

Families should use the official Sponsorship Packet and follow Club guidelines when approaching potential sponsors. All sponsorships must be processed through the Club Administrator (Lori Daniel) for proper crediting and record-keeping. Sponsorships should align with the club’s values and mission. The Board reserves the right to decline any sponsorship.

Resources

Members are encouraged to use this resource to solicit sponsorships

Rules & Restrictions

To ensure fairness and consistency, the following rules apply.

Incentives

Members are only eligible for incentives linked to small business sponsorships (Flight Controller) of $5,000 or less. Member incentives are valid for the term of the sponsorship and will be applied to the member account to offset tuition and meet fees. Members are not eligible for incentives at the sponsorship levels called Mission Control, Hubble Visionary, Cosmic Champion, or Constellation.

Yearly Sponsorships

Families may secure up to five (5) sponsorships per swim season, but may not receive an account credit beyond $250.

Exclusivity

Once a family submits a completed sponsorship form, that sponsor is credited to them; no other family may claim the same business during that season. Families are encouraged to check with the HSA Operations Coordinator before approaching a business to avoid duplicate requests

Renewals

If a sponsor from the prior season renews, credit will go to the same family who originally secured that sponsorship, unless the family is no longer active with the Club. If two families collaborate to secure a sponsor, they may choose to split the credit; the arrangement must be confirmed in writing when the sponsor form is submitted.
