Team Shirts and sponsors

[EricH]

Officially, I don't remember seeing any limitations. However, companies would need to think through the implications of sponsoring various groups--to take the alcoholic drink example, if I'm a company that sells those, I don't necessarily want to have my name/logo all over a high school competition, because I could be seen as promoting underage drinking. So if I DO sponsor such a competition/team, I'm going to either do it through a proxy that most people won't recognize as being part of the company (or as a personal thing) or ask them for complete secrecy on everything except paperwork that is absolutely required (say, team financials). Which kind of defeats some of the point of sponsorship...

YES!

We put the sponsors on the robot, t-shirts, newsletters, and many more things if they gave us $1,000 or more. If they give less, they still get mentioned on our team website. It's a nice thank you to your sponsors.
