CITY » he Warriors would have a patch worth $12.9

The Golden State Warriors are asking for $15 million to $20 million per year for the rights for a company to put its logo on their jersey starting in the 2017-18 season, sources told ESPN.It is believed that the Warriors, who won the NBA title in 2015 but lost in the Finals to the Cleveland Cavaliers in seven games this year, are asking for more money than any other team.The NBA recently approved a three-year pilot program to allow teams to sell 2?-inch by 2?-inch patches on the upper left of jerseys, opposite what will be a swoosh from Nike, which will begin its deal as the leagues official apparel-maker after the 2016-17 season.Only one club has consummated a deal since the league allowed teams to start doing business in mid-May. The Philadelphia 76ers three-year deal with StubHub is worth $5 million a year, according to sources.The Warriors are making a case to companies that star power -- which now includes Kevin Durant -- combined with their huge market and local television ratings make the high cost of doing business worth it.What companies will ultimately pay is said to be based on how much is included in the package beyond the logo on the jersey, such as whether they get sponsor category exclusivity, arena signage inventory and breadth of use to a teams logos for marketing.Category competitiveness will also play a part, as a company in the tech sector with hundreds of competitors would likely pay more than a soft drink company, which features a main battle of Coca-Cola versus Pepsi.Officials with the Warriors declined comment.Eric Smallwood of Apex Marketing Group, a sponsorship evaluation company that has been hired by some teams to help maximize their logo patch deals, said the greatest value is based on how many national television broadcasts a team will have, which is largely based on how good the team is.Smallwood said the concern from sponsors would be if a three-year deal is signed and key players leave.Sponsors have to have a player contingency put in these deals, Smallwood said.In the 2013-14 season, for example, Miami had 25 national television games and Cleveland had four. LeBron James then went back to Cleveland, and the next season, the Cavaliers were featured in 21 games while Miami had 16.Smallwood said that -- based on his calculations of total exposure that includes TV broadcasts, social media and internet exposure -- the Warriors would have a patch worth $12.9 million to $19.3 million if they had at least 30 national TV games. That doesnt include playoffs, Smallwood said.A three-year Warriors deal could present some challenges. Stephen Curry?and Durant could be gone by the time the patch deal would start in 2017-18. A patch deal could also tie in to a new arena for the 2018-19 season, which isnt on a definite timetable yet.While many elements are included in a patch deal, teams have to declare what the value of just the patch itself is. Thats because the value of the deal must be divided into two -- 50 percent to the teams and 50 percent to the players. Of the 50 percent that the teams keep, half of that goes to the team that did the deal with the other half going to a revenue-sharing pool.The corporate logos will not be on jerseys at retail nationwide. Teams can elect to sell the jersey with the corporate logo in their team stores. The 76ers said they would offer that option to fans. Custom Maple Leafs T-shirts .

The dream of watching his younger sister possibly run around in red and blue ensured Melbournes Lynden Dunn had no hesitation in volunteering to be a part of the AFL Players Associations inaugural Womens Football Advisory Committee.Dunn, who has played 165 games for the Demons, is a passionate advocate for womens football. His younger sister plays junior footy, while his dad is also involved as a womens coach.The committee, which recently held its first meeting, was set up to drive the strategic direction of female player representation within the recently-announced National Womens League.Dunn frustrated by lack of senior opportunitiesDunn, the only current AFL player on the committee, said he pushed his name forward when the group was being established.I put my hand up for it, Dunn told ESPN. I am delegate for Melbourne for the AFLPA and ... my sister plays junior footy, my dad coaches womens football, so its something Im really passionate about.[The committee] had our first meeting last Friday, we spoke about the key issues and what we want to pursue in the immediate future in regards to the CBA and player welfare - [it is] important the women get the same high standards and opportunities as men, seeing as theyre going to be playing at the highest standards.With the [womens] competition coming in, its something I wanted to be involved in.Its exciting. Its given my sister, whos 12, a chance to play AFL football. Shes grown up watching me play and shes always wanted to. Now she has an opportunity, so for girls like my sister, they can now play on the biggest stage at the highest level, and thats very exciting. For the girls that are eligible to get drafted this year aand play in the inaugural season, it must be so exciting for them and for womens sport in general in Australia.dddddddddddd.Dunn added it would be special if his sister was good enough to be drafted by the Demons.For her to play at Melbourne would be so special, as she has grown up a passionate Demons supporter - her favourite player is Angus Brayshaw - so for her to have that chance to play at Melbourne or any other club is pretty special, he said.Melbourne and the Western Bulldogs have been viewed as trailblazers for the womens game, having staged a number of exhibition games in recent seasons. They were rewarded with two of the eight inaugural licenses, alongside Collingwood, Carlton, Adelaide, Brisbane, Greater Western Sydney and Fremantle.Dunn, 29, said he was extremely proud of the work the Demons had put into their womens team.[Ive been] very lucky to see it first-hand, not just from a family perspective but also the footy club has done a remarkable job building the womens game along with the Western Bulldogs, he said.Our club genuinely cares about the female side of the game, and growing that - theres a huge opportunity for the club going forward, and its very exciting. Hopefully other clubs are looking at ours as to how to set up a womens team.Alongside Dunn in the committee are AFLPA chief Paul Marsh, Libby Lyons, director of the Workplace Gender Equality Agency, Prue Gilbert, co-founder and CEO of Grace Papers, and current players Courtney Cramey, Emma King, Leah Kaslar, Bree White, Tiarna Ernst, Lauren Arnell and Maddy Collier.
