A bit of History
The Basketball Association of America (BAA) was founded in 1946, with its first game held in Toronto, Ontario, Canada on November 1, 1946, featuring the Toronto Huskies and New York Knickerbockers. After three seasons, in 1949, the BAA merged with the National Basketball League (NBL) to form the National Basketball Association (NBA). As the 1950s approached, basketball grew in popularity as a major college sport, sparking increased interest in professional basketball. In 1959, the basketball hall of fame was established in Springfield, Massachusetts, where the game was originally played. This esteemed institution recognizes outstanding players, coaches, referees, and individuals who have made significant contributions to the sport’s advancement.
What’s happening in Basketball Now?
The upcoming series this month is the NBA finals between the Boston Celtics and the Dallas Mavericks. The Boston Celtics have won over 60 games in the regular season and are the favourites in the finals, led by talented Jason Tatum and brilliant Jaylon Brown with a great supporting cast of great defensive players. The Dallas Mavericks have won 50 games also in the regular season lead by the sensational Luka Dončić and the crafty ball handler Kyrie Irving who are supported by a young cast of unknown role players. Will this be the year Boston finally breakthrough and win the championship or will history repeat itself with Dallas beating another super team.

Everyone’s a Winner
In the world of professional sports, partnering with businesses help play a crucial role in the success and sustainability of the sports organisations. These affiliates invest not only their money but also their time and trust in supporting a club. As a token of appreciation, it is essential to acknowledge their contribution and dedication. One thoughtful and impactful way to do this is by presenting them with a framed jersey. In this blog post, we will explore why a framed jersey is the perfect gift from clubs to club sponsors.
A Symbol of Gratitude
A framed jersey serves as a tangible symbol of the club’s appreciation for their sponsor’s support. It is a statement that the club values the partnership and wants to commemorate it in a meaningful way. The framed jersey not only honours the sponsor but also sends a powerful message to other potential sponsors. It shows that the club appreciates its partners and is committed to building long-lasting relationships.
A Permanent Reminder
A framed jersey is not just a gift; it is a lasting reminder of the partnership between the club and the sponsor. When on display, it serves as a constant reminder of the positive impact they have had on the club. For the sponsor, it shows a commitment to local sports like BBL, which can align perfectly with the businesses mantra whilst also creating a sense of pride for the sponsor. Every time they glance at their framed basketball shirt, they can take pride in the role they play in the club’s success.
Sean Skelly | Head of Basketball (Men) & Operations
“Framing a jersey for me is not just putting a piece of fabric into a case. It’s capturing and memorialising a moment in time, a feeling or a memory.
“I’ll never forget winning our first trophy in 20 years and thanks to Sunny and his team at Frame my Jersey neither will our partners, who will proudly display items in their businesses from our most successful season to date”.
An Artistic Display
When done professionally, a framed jersey can elevate the aesthetic of an office or reception; it transforms the jersey into a piece of art. The choice of frame, backing colour and coloured spacer, with additions that include plaques and photos can further the jersey’s visual appeal. Sponsors that have been with the club for several years will proudly showcase the journey they have been on with the club. It becomes a conversation starter and a statement piece that can generate interest and curiosity about the club, potentially leading to more exposure and support.
Lasting Impact on Sponsorship
A framed jersey can generate positive word-of-mouth and referrals, as sponsors share their experience with other potential supporters. This can lead to a network of affiliates who are eager to engage with the club, thanks to the excellent reputation and appreciation that such gifts cultivate. In addition to this, it creates great brand awareness for the club, with framed shirts on display at all these distinguished businesses.
In conclusion, a framed jersey is not just a gift; it is an emotional connection between the club and the sponsor. It demonstrates that the club cares about the sponsor’s involvement on a deeper level. This emotional connection can foster a stronger and more enduring relationship.
