Zubie Five Prospects, Prices & Pitches Sponsorships.
You Keep the Revenue.
Keeping kids on the field. Keeping programs funded.
Zubie Five finds sponsors for community sports organizations and gets paid only when they do. Youth leagues, high school athletics, nonprofits, collegiate and pro programs, motorsports, and parks and rec departments — across Arizona, California, and Nevada, expanding nationwide.
I'm Adam Zubiate. I've spent my career in sports and nonprofit business development — I've worked with numerous professional sports organizations across Arizona and California, handling everything from ticket sales and community engagement to hospitality and partnerships. On the nonprofit side, I ran fundraising galas and golf tournaments for well-known national nonprofits while establishing new corporate partnership opportunities for their programs. I know what a brand's marketing director needs to see before they say yes, because I've spent ten years making that pitch and hearing the answer.
Zubie Five brings that to youth leagues, high school athletics, and community nonprofits — the programs that have real audiences and nobody selling for them.

Sports is where we do most of our work — but if you run a program with a real audience and nobody selling for it, we should talk.
You Keep the Revenue.
A four-step process that turns your organization's untapped sponsorship potential into real, recurring revenue.
We assess your programs, audience, community footprint, and current revenue channels. This becomes the foundation of your entire sponsorship strategy.
We identify every sponsorship asset you have from jerseys, banners, events, digital, and build tiered packages with professional pitch decks.
We handle 100% of outreach, pitching, follow-up, and negotiation with local businesses and national brands. You never make a sales call.
Commission-only. We earn a percentage of closed deals.
Difference
Professional teams have someone whose entire job is selling sponsorship. Community organizations have a board member doing it between practices. We bring ten years of pro and nonprofit sponsorship experience to programs that have real audiences and nobody selling for them — across Arizona, California, and Nevada, and expanding.
Building a World Where Sports Changes Lives at Every Level
Every child deserves the chance to play. That belief is why Zubie Five exists — but the way to protect it isn't a slogan, it's revenue.
When a league lands real sponsorship, it can hold registration fees down, buy equipment it was asking families to cover, and fund scholarships for the kids who need them. When a league can't, it shrinks or folds — and rec ball stops being an option in that community. Club and travel programs do great work, but they're a different commitment and a different budget. Families should get to choose that, not get pushed into it.
I grew up playing. I want kids today to have the same shot, which means the organizations giving it to them need to be funded well enough to stay open.
Today, Zubie Five serves youth leagues, high school athletics, club and travel programs, nonprofits, collegiate and independent sports properties, motorsports, and cities and parks & rec departments across Arizona, California, and Nevada. Whether we're securing a jersey patch sponsor for a little league or building a full sponsorship strategy for a D3 athletic department, the mission is the same: find the right partners, unlock the right revenue, and let sports do what it does best.
We believe sports, at every level, is one of the most powerful forces for community, character, and connection that exists. Our job is to make sure the organizations delivering that impact never have to do it without the resources they deserve.

Commission-only. We earn 15–30% of the sponsorship revenue we close for you, scaled to deal size — larger deals, lower rates. Renewal rates decline every season and never reach zero. We're paid only on money you actually collect, never on signatures.
We work with organizations where the total sponsorship opportunity is $1,000 or more per season. There's no minimum on any individual sponsorship — five outfield banners at $200 each is a program we'll build. One $200 banner with nothing else to sell isn't.
If you're not sure what you've got, our valuation tool is free and we'll walk through it with you.
