Hey New Zealand, we are a coarse fishing (fresh water) team from New Zealand who is seeking sponsorship for the Carp World Classic fishing competition in September 2017 in France.
Team Members:
1.Marius Koekemoer (capt)
2.Gareth Edwards
3.TBA ( we are collecting funds for this amazing angler )
We ask for funding for our third member that unfortunately do not have the money to travel to Europe. He is by far one of the best Coarse fisherman in New Zealand. It will be amazing to give him his NZ shirt and plain ticket :). Rest of funding will be used for all our gear that we need, accommodations and food for two weeks. We will be fishing for 5 days non stop.
New Zealand has never fished the World Carp Classic in 20 years in the events history. Our aim is to raise 10,000 + dollars so we can attend the event and represent New Zealand in the competition which is a first for NZ. We will be getting a great deal of coverage over the 5 days of fishing on television with a audience of millions of people throughout Europe and possibly coverage on sky sports in NZ as well as articles in the carp World Cup official magazine and fishing magazines across the world. Not every team gets this kind of media coverage so any company/person that sponsors us will be getting the best available exposure. Awesome exposure for visitors to New Zealand as well. Our aim is to attend the event and possibly win it and bring the trophy home.
Our team is very passionate about coarse fishing and with it being a small sport hear the chance for it to grow as a household sport is endless. This is the one sport that could have massive benefits for our youth. Getting youth into fishing is the way forward preserve our waterways and our green image.
I'm the Team Captain. We tried to go last year and was unsuccessful. We did not get enough support. This year we have the attitude and the will to succeed.
The Funds will be used to pay our team entery fee and all our gear that we need for the event. Also our food and accommodation for the who weeks. We have paid for our flights but need the final push to reach our goal. Due to the weight of our fishing gear we will not be able to fly with our gear to France.
We need the support of NZ to reach the last milestone.
