SPONSORSHIP PROPOSAL 2024
WHO WE ARE
Mentone Hockey Club was established in 1977 as the Old Mentonians Hockey Club. Through a merger with the Mordialloc Women's Hockey Club and with the introduction of junior teams in 1994, the now Mentone Hockey Club Inc. has grown to over 32 teams, with 450+ members, and is one of the premier hockey clubs in the southern metropolitan region.
Mentone Hockey Club caters for players of all ages and abilities. We offer Hookin2Hockey and Minkey programs for our young (Under 8 years) and developing players, girls, and boys junior teams for Under 10, 12, 14, 16, and 18 age groups, as well as men’s and women’s teams for both senior and masters (35 to 65 years old) players.
Mentone Hockey Club is affiliated with Hockey Victoria (HV), and as well as having teams in the HV Winter competitions at varied levels of difficulty (played from April to September), we also have teams competing in various Summer and Indoor competitions (played October to February).
The Mentone Hockey Club home ground is at the Keysborough Playing Fields of Mentone Grammar School at 756-768 Springvale Road, Keysborough.

WHY SPONSOR MENTONE HOCKEY CLUB?
Becoming the best club we can be requires not only the support of members, players, and families but also funding and support from individuals and businesses within the local community.
Mentone Hockey Club is offering the opportunity to align with a successful and passionate club that continually strives to help every player achieve their best.
Thank you for considering sponsoring our team. Your support will help in the following areas:
- Player development, coaching, and equipment (balls, goals, coaching & training tools)
- Upgrades to facilities (seating/grandstands)
- Umpire and Specialist Development coaching programs
- Support of Hockey Victoria's special rounds (Women in Sport, Pride, Men's Health, Indigenous)
We can recognise sponsors as individual sponsors for a particular round. Let us know if you want to discuss this further.
You’ll also be positioning your business as a champion for well-being in the Bayside area and as an organisation that values the role of sport in the local community.
Your support is essential to our success.
