Beach FC Policy club logo Usage

The purpose of the policy below is to keep continuity and club unity amongst the teams. The intent is to protect the Beach FC logo and brand.

Any request to reproduce, or manipulate, the club logo in any way, shape or form must be approved by the Beach FC Board of Directors. This includes team wind wavers, team websites, and any other "spirit" oriented items
Due to a licensing agreement with Southern Screen and Graphics, Beach FC teams are not authorized to produce and/or re-sell non-approved Beach FC items. These include but are not limited to: apparel, pins, patches, stickers etc.
In an effort to keep the team flags consistent, we have team wind wavers (flags) available for $200 at the Beach FC Office. They typically retail over $300, so this is a great price.

Beach FC Policy on individual team fundraising sponsor solicitation:

The purpose of the policy below is to maximize team and club fundraising without creating situations where the club and individual teams are soliciting the same individuals, businesses, corporations and foundations. It communicates a process of thanking donors while operating within the laws of non-profit organizations. Virginia Beach Travel Soccer, Inc. (Beach FC) is a 501c3 organization defined by the state and federal tax law.

All Beach FC teams are encouraged to develop fundraising activities to help offset the costs of travel soccer. Beach FC will make every effort to help identify ways to help the individual teams raise money
Individual teams should communicate with the Executive Director any solicitations made by the team, or individuals on the team. This will help both the team, and club, know what contacts have been made, and in many cases may provide an additional fundraising opportunity for other teams and the club as a whole
In an effort to thank sponsors consistently, teams will have the ability to place sponsor logos ONLY on team bags, and team websites. We will place these sponsor logos on the club website listed as a "Community Sponsor." Any other sponsor recognition will be approved by the Beach FC Board of Directors.
Beach FC will send each sponsor/donor an official thank you letter and tax receipt. Beach FC teams should send sponsor information to Andy Walker so thank you notes may be written.

Beach FC conducts, and will continue to conduct, fundraising at the club level in order to offer the best soccer experience to our players at the lowest cost in the tidewater area.

Thanks for your cooperation!

Sincerely,

Andy Walker

Executive Director
Beach FC
