Greetings!

The Warrenville Athletic Association is a non-profit, volunteer organization whose mission is to provide high quality youth baseball programs to Warrenville and surrounding communities. Thanks to the generous support of our sponsors the 2007 baseball season was one of our most successful seasons ever. We are very excited about the 2008 season, but we need your help.

Sponsorship of our program allows you to support the youth of Warrenville and also provides businesses excellent visibility throughout Warrenville and the surrounding communities. All sponsors are identified on our website, www.waasports.com. Field Sponsors, Travel Team Sponsors, Special Event Sponsors and Capital Program Sponsors receive a prominent display at the top of our home page. Links to sponsor's websites will be accommodated. All sponsors will also be identified on all WAA mailings. The Team Sponsors and Travel Teams Sponsors will be named on the team uniforms. Field Sponsors, Special Event Sponsors and Capital Program Sponsors will be identified on banners placed at all fields throughout the entire baseball season.

The following pages provide a summary of the various sponsorship programs that are available for 2008.
