Time is running out for individuals and businesses wishing to sponsor the Sydney the Kidney Plays 7s rugby team.
The seven-aside team was set up in support of a charity formed by Redruth dad Nathan Thomas, who donated a kidney, nicknamed Sydney, to his young daughter Oceanna.
Mr Thomas has already raised nearly £11,000 for the hospital in Bristol where his daughter was treated.
The Sydney the Kidney plays 7s team comprises Mr Thomas, Redruth's Luke Collins plus players from across the county.
There is room on their new, specially designed pink kit for sponsorship.
A lot of space has already been taken, but there is still room for a little more.
It costs £50 to put your name on the back of a shirt, and £100 on the front.
Proceeds from the venture will be split between the Oceanna Grand Appeal and Brenda Pedley's breast cancer research fundraising, which has reached almost £90,000.
Paul Hancock, from Cornish Granite Sports, and the Reds Shop are supporting the team by paying all competition entry fees.
Mr Hancock said: "We've had a massive response to the sponsorship appeal already, but there are still two players' shirts available.
"The team did very well in its first competition, reaching the semi final of the cup at the seven-aside tournament at Penryn."
To find out more about the sponsorship deal, ring Mr Hancock on 07745 994527. The closing date is May 10.
