Support Tampa Bay's LGBTQ+ tennis community and get your brand in front of a passionate, travel-active LGBTQ+ tennis community — on-court, across social media, and on branded gear worn at tournaments across the country.
The Citrus Classic is Tampa Bay's premier LGBTQ+ tennis tournament - a GLTA-sanctioned event drawing 250+ players and guests from across the U.S. and internationally each November. The weekend spans singles, doubles, and mixed doubles competition across 5 skill divisions, closing with the formal Citrus Classic Gala for players, guests, and sponsors. Your brand travels with this community long after the final match.
Every sponsorship level includes meaningful recognition that extends beyond tournament weekend — on our website, in event communications, and through a community that competes at GLTA events year-round. Higher tiers unlock exclusive access, naming rights, and visibility across all 26 courts and event materials.
The highest visibility sponsorship available. As the exclusive title sponsor of the Citrus Classic, your brand is front and center for the entire event — from opening day through the gala dinner awards ceremony.
As title sponsor, your brand appears on tournament t-shirts worn by players well into the new year — at courts, clubs, and GLTA events across the country.
Exclusive naming rights for the Players Tent and Lounge — the hospitality hub of the tournament. Your brand lives where players gather between matches all weekend long.
Significant court presence with banners across five tournament courts and shared signage at the tournament desk. Strong visibility throughout the full weekend of play.
Visible court presence and digital recognition. A meaningful way to show your support for the LGBTQ+ tennis community and connect your brand with the Citrus Classic.
Every contribution strengthens the community. As an Ally Supporter, your name is recognized on the Citrus Classic website and through social media — and you're publicly aligned with one of Tampa Bay's longest-running LGBTQ+ sporting events
