What kinds of partnerships fit
- ✓Sport-specific equipment, apparel, gear. Brands a coach or athlete would actually buy. Surface placements appear on the matching sport's pages.
- ✓Coaching, training, and reference resources. Books, courses, certifications, training programs. Relevant placements can help readers find their next learning resource.
- ✓Tournament management and league software. Tools that complement our generators and scoreboards. Relevant tools can help readers take the next step after planning a game.
- ✓Affiliate partnerships are welcome too — hand-picked, with FTC-compliant disclosure. Not interested in commission-driven link spam; interested in recommendations our readers will thank us for.
What we don't accept
- ×Programmatic / RTB / ad-network code. We don't embed third-party JS, pixels, or behavioral trackers. If you require those for measurement, we're not a fit.
- ×Pop-ups, interstitials, autoplay video. Single static placement only. Reader experience is non-negotiable.
- ×Exclusivity over rules content. Rules stay free for readers, no matter who pays for placements alongside.
- ×Health-claim ads on youth-sport pages. Supplements, performance boosters, or anything regulated by the FDA / FTC for health claims will not appear on pages indexed for under-18 sports or content.
- ×Political, MLM, and crypto-speculation ads. Doesn't serve our reader, doesn't fit our voice.
Start with a scoped placement pilot
Tell us which sport or tool audience you serve. We agree the placement, creative, dates, reporting and fixed pilot price before any payment. A placement does not include a guaranteed audience or number of conversions.
- Sport placement: a disclosed card on relevant rule pages.
- Category placement: a disclosed card across an agreed sport category.
- Tools placement: a disclosed card alongside our free sports tools.
- Affiliate partnership: agreed commission terms and attribution through your program.
We review fit and delivery capacity before quoting. Aggregate activity counts are directional; they are not verified people or billable impressions. Affiliate commissions are settled through the agreed partner program.
How placements work
One slot per page on rules pages and tool pages. Static image or short text card. Sport-specific inventory routes to matching pages — basketball gear shows on basketball, not on cricket.
First-party metrics only. We log daily aggregate impression and click counts on our own server. No cookies, no IPs, no user IDs. We give you a periodic report with the numbers; we don't hand off any audience data.
FTC-compliant disclosure. Every placement carries a visible "Sponsored" or "Affiliate" tag. Anchors carry rel="sponsored nofollow noopener noreferrer".
Supporters and Patrons see no ads. Our donation tier comes with an absolute ad-free promise. Placements are eligible only for anonymous and free-tier visitors. We do not claim a measured share of human visitors.
Current partners
Confirmed partnerships will be listed here when their placements are active. Catalogued organizations are not automatically commercial partners.
Pitch us
We read every inquiry personally. Typical reply within 5 business days. We'll send a sample placement preview and a scoped pilot proposal if it's a fit.
