We have different levels of sponsorships, but the things we offer to our sponsors doesn't look appealing.
for example, right now, we define Gold Sponsorship as $1000 or more. And we only give our sponsors a plaque and put their name and logo on our website.
we use to add the sponsor's logo on the back of our tshirts, but due to costs, we cant do it this year. any suggestions would be appreciated. ty

How about a banner that you bring to competition with all the sponsors? At the end of the season you could give them a frame with one side being a picture of the banner and the other being a letter thanking them and explaining where the banner went, how many people saw it, etc. This gives them some concrete visualization of where their money is going and that you appreciate every penny.
