Michael and I are currently seeking sponsorship from a company that we can promote.
First of all, Michael and I are known as the "fitness couple" of
armwrestling. We are both into health, fitness, and competitions.
I am attaching two web sites for your review. They will have some
bio information about us. Michael's is
www.allmichaeltodd.com and mine is
http://coffmansportsmanagement.homestead.com/TWood.html
As you notice, I do have an agent but he has not produced anything as
of yet. It is stated that if get my own sponsorship, he receives
nothing. So, there are no worries regarding that aspect of
it. Michael can currently been seen in the Lipo-6 ads in
Muscle and Fitness,
Flex,
Muscular Development, Ironman Magazine and
Men's Fitness. I have been in the
Celebrate Northwest Arkanas magazine.
Secondly, the expenses would vary for us. Depending on the
event depends on the amount. Currently, Michael is in high demand
and is frequently featured in supermatches. These supermatches
are well promoted through ArmTv internationally at
www.armwrestlingtv.com
. As of this time, he is undefeated. Also, he is
currently ranked 4th overall among all of the armwwrestlers in
North America. So, each supermatch is at least a $1000
entry fee plus travel expenses. They are set up usually a
month in advance. Right now, he has two scheduled for June 17th
in New York. As far as upcoming tournaments that
we will be competing in are
Ultimate Armwrestling III in
Las Vegas April 22nd,
Pro-Am Nationals in Rising Sun, Indiana May 13th, AAA Nationals in
Mason, Ohio June 2-3, Unified Nationals in Denver, Colorado August 4-6,
The Europa Show in Dallas/Ft. Worth August 25-26, The Tournament of
Champions in Reno, Nevada in November. These are tentative and
could change. For example, upon qualification, we will go to
London, England with Team USA this fall. The Arnold Classic
Qualifiers from the above list are USAA National Pro-Am, Unified
Nationals, and Tahoe Brawl for it All. Most if not all of the
above events will be filmed by ESPN, ESPN2, and/or Armtv.
Thirdly, as I had mentioned, I am currently training to obtain my
pro card in figure. I am the only female in the world to do both
armwrestling and figure competitions. I am very active and strive to be
the best. I have been approached in doing a supermatch, but because of
the date, I had to decline. I am currently ranked 5th overall in the
lightweights in North America. The figure events that I would
like to attend are as follows: *Junior National Figure Championships in Chicago, IL (6/16-17/06), *National Figure Championships, Masters National Figure Championships (7/21-22/06), *USA Figure Championships (7/28-29/06) in Las Vegas ,
**Pittsburgh Figure, **23rd Southern Classic Figure, **Greater Gulf
States Figure, **Arkansas State Figure, **Ozark Figure, **Mississippi
State Figure, **Red River Classic Figure, and **Northwest
Classic. The bolded items are events where I could receive my pro card,
and the others are national qualifiers. The events are subject to
change dependent on me getting my pro card.
For your sponsorship, we will wear any attire that you
provide during competitions unless the rules require certain
tournament competition wear, be available for any advertising,
interviews, photo shoots, commercials, special appearances, etc. We,
Michael and Tonya, will also wear temporary tattoos on head,
arms, forehead, cheeks, hands, arms, etc as long as permitted by event
organization. There will also be a minimum of 50 photos from the
event and at least a 10 minute video as allowed by tournament
organzation rules. We will also distribute company products to
event participants. Basically, we will be pretty much open to most of
what you need for promoting your company.
I welcome you to attend either an armwrestling event or one of my figure competitions
Take Care and God Bless,
Tonya Wood and Michael Todd
