Deals with teams and federations dominate the market, both in terms of volume and value. Brands often choose to partner with teams, looking to create an emotional connection with their fans. Partnering with teams can also include working with star players. Federations may look to partner with gambling firms as they are often willing to invest more sponsorship funding than brands from other sectors.

Brands often see great value in partnering directly with athletes.
