reputations. Others,

, believe the opposite. Both points of view need to be addressed before formulating an opinion. There are two significant drawbacks to corporate sponsorships.

First

and foremost, the company's reputation may be tightly linked to the player and vice versa.

For instance

, if a player becomes a drug addict or if a team fails, the sponsor company may be perceived negatively by consumers.

events.

This

results in increased consumption of harmful drinks, sugar and salt.

On the contrary

facilities and purchasing expensive equipment for players.

As a result

can get increased media exposure on their products or services and boost their sales. To conclude, I personally feel that the merits of

Nevertheless

, efforts should be made to minimize the latter.
