Community
Hi, welcome to the community section of the Sponser UK website.
Things are a little different over here. Elsewhere on the site you can find out about the history of Sponser, the quality of the ingredients and the processes behind the products, as well as get advice about how, when and why to use our products. You can also BUY THE PRODUCTS (go and do it now, we’ll wait until you get back)…
OK, Community, this is where I get to talk about the things that inspire me and everyone here at Sponser UK and the underlying reasons why we all wanted to work in sports instead of accountancy or banking.
I might even end up talking about why American Flyers is an underrated film (excellent guest starring role from Kevin Costner’s moustache, but that’s not the only reason). We’ll be supporting our communities in various ways over the coming months and years, so drop by every now and then and see how they are getting on, or e-mail us ideas of how we can help your community.
Supporting Events
Sponser in Switzerland support over 100 events per year, so, we’ve got some catching up to do in the UK. Get in touch through the Contact Us form if you know of an event that needs our support.

Supporting Charity
So much good work goes on through charities and we can all help in so many ways. We have made a commitment to select a charity each year that we will support in as many ways as we can. This starts with our committing to donating a percentage of our profits to our chosen charity (slightly boring, but important). However, we will also arrange promotions and competitions, participate in events, and generally fly the flag as much as we can.
Supporting Clubs
Club level competition is often described as the grassroots of sports, but they are more than that, they are the bedrock of our sporting communities. Through clubs I have learnt to play rugby and football as a kid, learnt to train for cycling and running as an adult and been supported through my first races by the patient and generous club members who have helped me over the years.
In 2012, the London Olympic year, the year of sport, we want to try and give a little back to all of these clubs and the myriad of others around the country so they can continue to nurture and support all athletes. The idea is simple: we are giving clubs 10% cashback on all member purchases and giving club members 10% discount. Find out more
Supporting Athletes
Every athlete has a story to tell, a reason they put in the hours, days and years of hard work and dedication. For elite athletes it may be represented by world championships, Olympic golds and records, for those of us not at the pinnacle of our chosen sports it might be represented by a finishers medal or perosnal best.
I believe all of us share a single, overarching, goal; to be the best that we can be.
This section is split into two:
- In ‘Profiles’ we meet the Elite Athletes who choose Sponser
- In ‘Real Files’ we meet some of our community members who have stories to tell.
Hopefully, both the Profiles and Real-Files will motivate and inspire you.
Profiles
Elite athletes understand the importance of high quality sports nutrition. Across Europe some of the best athletes in the world select Sponser as their sports food provider.
Please see our athletes page.
Real-Files
You know what, regular athletes know the importance of high quality sports nutrition too…
See our amateur athletes page
Want to share your story, please use the Contact Us form to get in touch, we may be able to support you as you prepare to meet the next challenge.
