2013 Derrick Law Firm Carolinas Kickoff Clash
August 30 and 31, 2013
In 2012, several Myrtle Beach businesses took advantage of the marketing partnership which was available within the Derrick Law Firm Kickoff Classic. They enjoyed media exposure through ESPN radio, TV advertising, game day branding intitiatives, and customer entertainment. Apparently they felt this affordable investment was worthwhile as the vast majority have already renewed their position and we have began working on our 2013 initiatives. In 2013, 151 Sports will continue to provide a first class experience for the companies who choose to use this event platform to not only brand their business but take advantage of all the customer entertainment options that accompany a partnership with 151 Sports Marketing and the Derrick Law Firm Carolinas Kickoff Clash. The goal in 2013 is to expand the sponsor experience with additional event related activities and then culminate the week with four of the best high school football games in the country. These games will take place at Doug Shaw Stadium in downtown Myrtle Beach and will feature all four games within a 24 hour period. Our hopes would be to have approximately 6,000 attendees over two days of competition.
