Through the mail tips and a sample letter

Here are some tips for sending about to athletes

  1. Always keep your letter short and to the point, but don't be rude. Preferably write your letters, or if you have bad hand writing type them. Also, keep your letter no longer than a page.
  2. You may want to include something for them to sign, they are very busy, and dont need to go looking around for something to sign for you.
  3. Always include a self addressed stamped envelope(S.A.S.E.)-This is an envelope you addressed to yourself with postage on it, for the celebrity to return your hopefully signed item back to you. If you dont include one, you may not get your item back signed, or even back at all.
  4. Be patient. Celebrities are busy people. It may take up to 8 months, or even a year for the return of your now signed item.

Here is a sample letter
