Put your name on their big day

Every September, sixteen mahajans bring their families together, now across three days of sport and song. Around a thousand people pass through the doors. Sponsorship is what keeps entry fees low enough that no family is priced out.

Three days, three venues, eleven sports and events. The costs are real and every one of them is volunteer-managed. Nothing is spent on administration.

Why sponsor us

A community, not an audience

You reach a whole community

Sixteen mahajans across Britain, from Manchester to Southend. Families who will see your name on the day, in the newsletter, and on the website all year.

It keeps the day affordable

Entry is £10 for an individual sport and £2 for youth cricket. Sponsorship is the reason those numbers stay where they are.

Every penny reaches the event

LCUK is run entirely by volunteers. No salaried staff, no administration overhead taken from sponsorship.

You back the next generation

The under-14 cricket and youth categories are where this community's future players come from. They are also the least able to cover their own costs.

You would be in good company
