First, we will continue to accept applications for the next several weeks, before we begin the selection process for the first wave of candidates.

We have put a lot of thought into this program, as well as the process in which we will identify new members for our team. The application--which some might feel is cumbersome or lengthy--is actually an extremely valuable tool for us, as it provides a pretty good overview of how people communicate and "sell" themselves, as well as offering a unique look into the areas, background and experience they feel is most important. To that end, thank you for all who have taken the time to complete a sponsorship application.

Secondly, we have put together a very thorough cross-section of team members that each respectively will play a role in the selection process. There are many attributes and qualities the ideal candidate will posses. And, we have taken the time to think this out and formalize the process. This means that no one person will pick and choose an athlete to sponsor. The reason is two-fold: to help make sure we find the most qualified people, and two, to make the process as fair as possible.

Lastly, once we have narrowed down the candidate pool, we will contact athletes direct to schedule one-on-one follow-ups/interviews. From there, we will make our final selections and notify each athlete.

Again, our goal is to ultimately attract the best athletes possible while doing so in the fairest possible manner.

FYI - The sponsorship application linked through the WANTED ad on the home page is the ONLY was to be elegable for sponsorship. Regardless of who you are this is the first step.
