Why a Club Trailer?
A food & coffee trailer can become one of your club's most useful assets.
It can help deliver:
Ongoing Club Fundraising

Volunteer-Friendly Setup
Create a practical, organised serving point that can be rostered across parents, members and club volunteers.
Better Game-Day Service
Serve coffee, cold drinks, snacks and suitable hot food from one mobile, purpose-built setup.
Community Engagement
Create a natural meeting point for players, families, supporters, visiting teams and local sponsors.
A Versatile Club Asset
Use it at your home ground, club functions and approved off-site events to support fundraising beyond match day.

Funding Your Club Trailer
There are plenty of ways clubs can make it happen.
Community Grants
Look at local council, community sport, participation, facility and regional grant programs that may suit your club.
Fundraising Campaign
Run club raffles, crowdfunding, special events, member drives or dedicated trailer fundraising campaigns.
Local Sponsorships
Invite local businesses to sponsor the trailer, equipment, signage, uniforms, supplies or a season of club trading.
Loans / Finance
Subject to approval, finance may help spread the upfront cost while the trailer begins generating club income.
Members & Supporters
Parents, players, past members, supporters and community groups are often keen to back practical club projects.

Built for Club Use
From junior soccer to local footy, cricket, netball and community sport
A club trailer can become a reliable game-day hub for players, families, supporters and visiting teams.
Use it at training nights, home fixtures, gala days, tournaments, presentation days and approved community events. Because the trailer is mobile, the club is not locked into a single serving point or one type of event.
A practical setup can be configured around your club's menu and workflow, with space for coffee equipment, refrigeration, food preparation, storage, serving windows and the equipment your volunteers or staff need.
It also gives sponsors a highly visible asset. Club branding, sponsor signage and event exposure can all help turn the trailer into something that supports both fundraising and community partnerships.
Whether your club is soccer, rugby league, rugby union, AFL, cricket, netball, hockey or another community sport, the goal is the same: make game days easier to service and create more opportunities to raise funds.

Turn Your Food Trailer Into A Fundraising Machine!
Your food trailer doesn't just have to make money selling food. The trailer itself can become valuable advertising space for local businesses that want to support your club.
- Sell sponsorship positions on the trailer each season.
- Give local businesses highly visible community exposure.
- Raise money towards purchasing or operating the trailer.
- Continue generating income from food sales at every game and event.
- Renew sponsorship packages each season for ongoing fundraising.
Create Your Club Sponsor Wall
Dedicate one side or section of the trailer to businesses that support your club. Offer different sponsorship levels based on the size and prominence of their logo.
Premium large logo placement in the most prominent positions on the trailer.
Medium-sized logo placement with excellent visibility at games and club events.
Business logo or name displayed on the club's supporter wall.
*Sponsorship figures are an example only. Clubs can adjust the number of positions and sponsorship prices to suit their community.
One Trailer. Two Ways To Fundraise.
Sponsorship Income
Raise money before the first burger is even sold by securing local businesses as seasonal trailer sponsors.
Food & Drink Sales
Then use the trailer at home games, tournaments, presentation days, carnivals, fundraisers and community events to create another ongoing income stream for the club.
Instead of running a one-off fundraiser, your club can own an asset that can continue raising money season after season.
