Promotion is an important part of high school, college and professional sports. Without it, there would be no way to increase crowd attendance. Without fans in the seats, it is impossible to generate money for the sports program and over time the program starts to suffer. Sports inflatables are a great promotional tool that draw new people out to games for entertainment.

Inflatable sports tunnels are very popular in high school and college level sporting events. They are often seen used during football, soccer, basketball, and hockey games. The home team runs down the tunnel during their entrance and bursts forth on to the playing area. The entrance is usually surprising and immediately brings fans to their feet with loud cheers.

Sponsored advertising can be put right on the tunnel itself, which is appealing to potentially new sponsors. Not only is the tunnel fun for the fans, but it also makes a great marketing platform as well. Sponsors pay for their ads to be placed there and the program earns money they need.

Inflatable tents are another popular choice for all levels of sporting events. They are quick to setup and provide an instant setting for a fan celebration, or a place to let some of the players interact with fans and sign autographs. They too come with the ability to place advertisements on them, which further increases the exposure you can offer potential sponsors.

Another great option is inflatable batting cages for baseball games. They are an interactive option that allows fans to show off and have a little fun while waiting for the game to start. From a marketing perspective, you could charge to use the batting cage or you could use it as a way for doing prize giveaways. Free tickets, team merchandise and money are all great prize options. Prize oriented activities are a great way to draw a large crowd and get fans more involved. As a result, less seats are left empty.

Inflatables are convenient enough to use during home or away games. Once deflated and folded up, they are small to transport. While on the road, they can provide a boost to visiting team attendance. Home game sales are always much easier to get and have the greatest financial benefit, but teams still need their fans while they are playing in other cities.

The media also loves events that feature inflatables. By setting up items like a tunnel and a tent for a meet and greet, you are more likely to grab media attention and increase the team's exposure. Being featured on the news is an excellent way to increase exposure and get more people interested in attending games.

Sports inflatables are a cheap marketing tool that provides years of use. As long as they are stored and care for properly, they will work well for many years after purchase. Inflatables are fun for the fans and get people excited about future games. They also have the advantage of generating additional revenue with sponsored ads. You might even be able to gain a few new sponsors with this new form of marketing.
